NASA's new UFO hunter weapon has been revealed. This hints that the International Space Agency is already taking unidentified flying objects, which are now called UAP (Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena), more seriously.

NASA Administrator Bill Nelson explained how important and effective the technology they'll use to find UAPs.

The new NASA UFO hunter weapon is not a new technology since the aerospace organization refers to artificial intelligence and machine learning. The latest effort of NASA to incorporate AI and ML in its UFO hunt program was confirmed by Bill Nelson during a recent briefing on September 14.

"We will use AI and machine learning to search the skies for anomalies... and will continue to search the heavens for habitable reality," he explained via Fox News. The NASA official added that artificial intelligence is already being used to explore numerous areas.

"So why should we limit any technological tool in analyzing, using data that we have?" added Nelson.

NASA's Associated Administrator, Dr. Nicola Fox, also shared her opinion regarding using AI and ML technologies. She said that artificial intelligence is an amazing tool to find "signatures that are sort of buried in data."

Meanwhile, NASA's independent UAP research team shared their findings, claiming that incorporating AIs and machine learning tools is necessary for a comprehensive UFO detection campaign.

According to Politico's latest report, NASA finally launched its official UFO hunt effort. This time, the Space Union is seeking help from Americans to find UAPs.

NASA said people can use their smartphones and other gadgets to capture mysterious aerial aircraft. The aerospace organization even called for a government-wide approach to collect UFO data.

NASA requested assistance from Americans and other people worldwide after its UFO team explained the things needed to find UAPs. The independent research group said there's no standardized system for making civilian UFO reports. Because of this, there are insufficient and incomplete data devoid of curation or vetting protocols.

The NASA team suggested that open-source smartphone-based apps that can gather imaging data and other databases across the globe should be checked by the space agency.

Recently, many NASA officials were quiet when asked about their opinions on UFOs. Now, many of them are becoming more open regarding their beliefs. One of them is Bill Nelson, who said he believes there's life in a vast universe.
