I’m a Harvard astrophysicist. Here’s why the government asked me to lead a council on UFOs and national security

A month ago, I was visited by a representative from the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI). He raised a simple question.

“Would you be willing to establish and lead a new advisory council for the US Government on the science of Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena?” In other words, would I head a council on UFOs. I responded: “You had me at ‘hello.’”

There was no doubt in my mind that I should accept this role. Our goal is to advise the U.S. government on how to resolve the nature of UAP.
