A New Endeavour.

Greetings. The UFO arena is populated with many nonsensical platforms, unprofessional groups and "organizations." Perhaps it has always been this way, but my feeling is that the situation has gotten substantially worse with the influence of the Internet and social media at play.

Expanding Frontiers Research is completely different. Headed by Executive Director Erica Lukes, and with the involvement of Jack Brewer and Barry Greenwood, this organization is dedicated to a focused look at the UFO issue and it's various aspects. The organization, just today, has announced that an online archive will be launched in the coming days, a repository of UFO information, free of invalid content or false information. The online archive will be launched on September 14th, and will be available on the organization's website, available at https://www.expandingfrontiersresearch.org/.

The organization broadcasts every Friday evening at 6:00pm Central Time from their YouTube channel, available at https://youtube.com/@EricaLukes?si=iQPi2-Bmsu59-14j. Erica Lukes and Jack Brewer co-host the program, entitled "Expanding Frontiers," featuring a wide range of guests discussing the UFO topic and other related subjects. 

The organization's announcement is available at https://www.expandingfrontiersresearch.org/post/efr-announces-online-ufo-archive.

I strongly encourage my readers to take a look at their work and their research. Expanding Frontiers Research is worthy of our full support and encouragement. 

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Liars, Frauds, and Misrepresenters.

Greetings. I am occasionally asked why I write about so many of the troubling issues within the UFO subculture. One reason, actually two. One, because the troubling issues exist, and I cannot in good conscience simply ignore them. Two, I am passionate about the UFO question, and I care deeply about the integrity of the entire UFO subculture, even though I am not an active participant in the movement.  There are many outstanding people involved in UFO research, individuals with integrity, an unshakable commitment to the work, and a high level of professionalism. They consistently grind the research stone in the never-ending effort to solve, or at the very least, learn about the UFO problem and it's innumerable questions. I cannot offer enough kind words of support and encouragement to those people, they are all deserving of our accolades, for they conduct their workmanlike efforts behind the scenes, without attention, out of the limelight, and beyond the prying eyes of the UFO subcu

Cringeworthy Promotion, Dolan Style.

Greetings. Mr. Richard Dolan is one of the most well-known figures in the UFO subculture. Known as a historian of the UFO topic, Mr. Dolan has commented at length about the UFO problem on various platforms, on broadcast media, during his own show, and on various social media outlets.  Mr. Dolan is a highly active participant on the UFO circuit, making appearances at many UFO themed festivals and conferences, actively promoting himself throughout. Now the simple act of promotion is not necessarily a negative course of action, but it is strongly suggestive of a change of course. In UFO circles, the act of self-promotion is a slippery slope, one that many well-known public figures have fallen into, some seemingly by accident, others by choice. Mr. Dolan seems to have chosen his course of action, and is apparently quite comfortable in his new surroundings.   Some UFO researchers have lost their professional credibility and integrity in the name of fame, notoriety, and financial gain.

MUFON: Peddling Nonsense or Unknowingly Ignorant?

Greetings. The Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) was once a legitimate investigative organization. Back in the 1970's, the organization worked alongside, but not in cooperation with, the Aerial Phenomena Research Organization (APRO) and the National Investigations Committee on Aerial Phenomena (NICAP.) By the 1990's, MUFON was the only game left in town, with APRO and NICAP having passed into UFO history. In recent years, the organization's focus has shifted away from UFO investigations towards the UFO entertainment industry and the nonsensical content it embraces. The organization has experienced several setbacks in recent years, self-inflicted wounds that tended to occur at the upper echelons of the organization, with the names Jan Harzan, John Ventre, and Steve Hudgeons immediately coming to mind. Despite this situation, there are several local chapters that have maintained a level of investigative focus and legitimacy, keeping the chaos of the higher organization at arm's
