Abstract: We study the deformation theory of nearly $mathrm{G}_2$ manifolds. These are seven dimensional manifolds admitting real Killing spinors. We show that the infinitesimal deformations of nearly $mathrm{G}_2$ structures are obstructed in general. Explicitly, we prove that the infinitesimal deformations of the homogeneous nearly $mathrm{G}_2$ structure on the Aloff--Wallach space are all obstructed to second order. We also completely describe the cohomology of nearly $mathrm{G}_2$ manifolds.
