Is anyone out there? NASA holds meetings on UFOs

Some of the world's leading scientists handpicked by NASA held their first public meeting Wednesday ahead of their Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP) report to be released in late July. One of the concerns the committee addressed regarding UAP was extraterrestrial lifeforms. However, NASA stressed its stance on the issue during the meeting.
