The account
Investigators presented cases with photographs, radar, ground traces and injuries to a panel of physical scientists. The panel said further study of the evidence shown was unlikely to settle the question, but recommended that future work focus on cases with strong physical evidence and that institutions be open to evaluating such reports.
The sceptical view
The panel was not convinced that any evidence pointed to a violation of natural laws or to extraterrestrial intelligence.
