“The time has come for serious, well-funded, and cutting-edge academic research into the nature of Unidentified Aerial Phenomena and their broad cosmological and political implications.” So reads a statement appearing on the website of the Sol Foundation, a new California-based think tank that has positioned itself to become “a premier center for UAP research.” This week on The Micah Hanks Program, Micah reports on the Sol Foundation's first annual event that was recently held at Stanford University, which he and several colleagues attended, along with many of the biggest names in the field of UAP study. We provide a comprehensive overview of the event, those who attended from government and academia, and also the big issues that were discussed at this groundbreaking event. Have you had a UFO/UAP sighting? Please consider sending us your sighting report, which may be of great importance to our scientific understanding of these phenomena.
