The account
Knuth works on Bayesian data analysis and the foundations of physics, and has edited the journal Entropy since 2012. He co-authored 'Estimating Flight Characteristics of Anomalous Unidentified Aerial Vehicles', which estimated the flight characteristics of objects in cases dating from 1951, including the 2004 Nimitz encounter. He is vice president of the field-research nonprofit UAPx and a Galileo Project research affiliate.
The sceptical view
Such estimates depend on witness and sensor interpretations that sceptics dispute; the topic is still widely dismissed as pseudoscience, which Knuth argues is a reason to study it properly.
