In this episode of HELLO FUTURE, host Kevin Cirilli speaks with Dr. Peter Skafish, co-founder and Director of Research at the Sol Foundation — a leading independent research and policy institute dedicated to the serious scientific, academic, and policy study of Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP) and their implications for science, government, and society.

With the Trump administration’s recent declassification of Pentagon UAP files, new photos and transcripts from NASA’s Apollo 12 through Apollo 17 missions have come to light — showing astronauts on the Moon reporting strange flashing lights, bright objects, and unexplained phenomena, including one crew member describing the sky lighting up “like the Fourth of July.”

Skafish breaks down what these historic sightings actually show, why they matter now more than ever, and how the Sol Foundation is helping bring rigorous, cross-disciplinary research and policy recommendations to the UAP conversation. The discussion explores the broader implications for humanity’s understanding of our place in the universe and what a transparent, “whole of society” approach to these phenomena could mean for the future.

HELLO, FUTURE with Kevin Cirilli is the daily podcast where tomorrow’s biggest questions come alive. Are aliens already visiting us? Could your next job be in space? What if satellites could find lost cities, or stop the next wildfire? What happens if America loses the space race… or if every satellite went dark tomorrow? From Mars to UFOs, from flying cars to “civilization starter kits,” each episode blends science, technology, and imagination with the real choices shaping our world. It’s smart, fast, and curious, built for anyone who’s ever looked up at the night sky and wondered what comes next. This isn’t science fiction. It’s the future, knocking on your door.
