Avi Loeb on Jesse Weber Live: Trump's UFO claims

Harvard physicist Avi Loeb joins Jesse Weber Live to discuss President Donald Trump’s remarks in an interview with CBS’s 60 Minutes. Trump told the program that he had been briefed on several unusual sightings reported by Air Force pilots, in meetings during both of his terms in office.

Loeb addresses the reliability of Trump’s claims and the puzzling nature of the observations. The conversation offers Loeb’s scientific perspective on the president’s account and the pilots’ reports; it does not identify the sightings as having a particular origin.
