A picture is getting viral on social media. In this picture, it can be seen that a foreign-born person is wearing saffron clothes with his family. Social media users are claiming that it is NASA scientist Paul Anderson, who has converted to Hinduism after being influenced by Hinduism. 

While sharing this post, a Facebook user captioned-” This is NASA scientist Paul Anderson. Who embraced Hinduism with his family while living in America.! 

Hindus understand the importance of Your religion.!” Jai ho to Sanatan Dharma. (English Translation)

At the same time, a user caption on a Facebook page was created in the name of TV anchor Sudhir Chaudhary-” “This is NASA scientist Paul Anderson. Who adopted Hindu Sanatan Dharma with his family while living in America.! Do you know the truth that the chief of NASA must also be a scholar in Sanskrit? Jai Ho Sanatan Dharma Ki. Jai Shri Sitaram Prabhu. This post has also been liked more than 2 thousand times.”

After this, the team searched on Google in the context of NASA scientist Paul Anderson’s conversion to Hinduism. We did not find a single report published in the mainstream media. Our team then gathered information about scientist Paul Anderson on the website of “NASA“. We did not see any scientist named Paul Anderson on the website. 

Conclusion:

It is clear from fact check DFRAC that there is no scientist named Paul Anderson in NASA. Therefore, the claim being made by social media users is wrong.
