The New Science of Unidentified Aerospace-Undersea Phenomena (UAP)

After decades of dismissal and secrecy, it has become clear that a significant

number of the world’s governments take Unidentified Aerospace-Undersea

Phenomena (UAP), formerly known as Unidentified Flying Objects (UFOs),

seriously–—yet still seem to know little about them. As a result, these phe-

nomena are increasingly attracting the attention of scientists around the

world, some of whom have recently formed research efforts to monitor and

scientifically study UAP. In this paper, we review and summarize approxi-

mately 20 historical government studies dating from 1933 to the present (in

Scandinavia, WWII, US, Canada, France, Russia, China), several historical

private research studies (France, UK, US), and both recent and current sci-

entific research efforts (Ireland, Germany, Norway, Sweden, US). In doing so,

our objective is to clarify the existing global and historical scientific narrative

around UAP. Studies range from field station development and deployment

to the collection and analysis of witness reports from around the world. We

dispel the common misconception that UAPs are an American phenomenon

and show that UAP can be, and have been, scientifically investigated. Our

aim here is to enable future studies to draw on the great depth of prior

documented experience.
