Analysis of Famed 2015 "GoFast" Navy Pilot UFO Video - NASA UAP Study Team Meeting Excerpt, May 2023

If you don't have time for the full three hour NASA Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP) Independent Study Team public meeting on May 31, 2023, WSN is providing excerpts of key moments from the event.

In this excerpt, Joshua Semeter, Director of the Center for Space Physics at Boston University, reports on analysis of the famous "GoFast" object video taken in 2015 by U.S. Navy pilots, showing that the object was travelling at about 40 mph, consistent with wind speeds at altitude. The analysis confirms similar estimates obtained years ago by private "UFO" investigator and debunker Mick West.
