Evening Edition: Searching For Answers For Unexplained Phenomena
They are called UFPs, or "Unexplained Phenomena," and they can range from unidentified flying crafts to paranormal events like telekinesis, the ability to move objects with your mind.

In the past few years, Congress has held hearings to hear witness and expert testimony to look into the sometimes unexplained.
FOX’s Chris Foster speaks with Dr. Julia Mossbridge, the executive director of The Institute for Love and Time (TILT), a fellow at the Institute of Noetic Sciences, and an associated professor at the California Institute of Integral Studies and the author of 'The Calling: A 12-Week Science-Based Program to Discover, Energize, and Engage Your Soul’s Work,' who has testified before Congress and says modern day science is catching up with UFP theories for possible answers.
