To: UFO researchers and investigators

The Society for the Scientific Investigation of Anomalous Atmospheric and Radar Phenomena (Mutual UFO Network – Central European Section) celebrates its 30th anniversary this year. The goal of MUFON-CES is to raise the UFO discussion to a scientific level and inform the scientific community about the phenomenon. For the anniversary we will publish a new German report including research results from the past 30 years. MUFON-CES has already published ten research reports in German and one in English, all of which are regarded as belonging to the best in the field. Application of the scientific method is the precondition for the requested work.

MUFON-CES requests

• papers on thoroughly investigated sightings of UFOs and its occupants or other investigation and research into the subject,
• analyses of physical effects of UFOs and papers about the physical nature of the phenomenon in general (e.g. propulsion system),
• papers that sum up or analyse research results of a longer time frame,
• papers on progress in UFO research or the “evolution” of the phenomenon,
• studies of the UFO situation in single countries or continents,
• papers on philosophical, sociological, psychological, political, financial or organizational questions on UFO research, and
• papers specially on the future of UFO research and its place in the scientific community.

All papers will be subjected to a referee procedure. Papers, essays, short or freely designed items that may have been published in other languages or anthologies are welcome. Material from outside the German speaking domain are especially requested. If you want to publish in German – we will arrange the translation if necessary – please contact us at the given address.

Deadline for final script: December 31, 2004
