Welcome to the J. Allen Hynek Center for UFO Studies

The Center for UFO Studies (CUFOS) is an international group of scientists, academics, investigators, and volunteers dedicated to the continuing examination and analysis of the UFO phenomenon. Our purpose is to promote serious scientific interest in UFOs and to serve as an archive for reports, documents, and publications about the UFO phenomenon.

CUFOS currently engages in several ongoing activities. We encourage you to become involved in our activities, including the reporting to us of local sightings and articles about UFOs, searching for UFO archival material, helping to maintain UFOCAT, our computer database of reports, or assisting with specific research projects.
