We have updated the NUFORC website as of Sunday, September 10, 2023.   The update includes 1055 new sighting reports, submitted by 9:00 a.m. (Pacific Daylight Time) on the date of this posting. Our next posting will be in early October.

NEW REPORT FEATURES

With this posting, we have upgraded the way that we index and publish reports on the site. New features include the ability to search and sort the indexes, and the inclusion of videos in those reports where they have been submitted. Also, we are now marking reports that we find especially interesting with an exclamation point next to the Open link in the indexes. Let us know in the comments what you think of the new format.

HOW CAN YOU HELP US?

As we proceeded through the laborious task of proof-reading and screening almost a thousand newly submitted sighting reports, it occurred to us that there are several things that people who use our Online Report Form could do that would reduce the amount of time it takes us to process reports.  We include a few of those items, in brief, below, and we probably will expand the list over future weeks, when we aren’t rushed by updating the website. 

1. PLEASE EXERCISE CARE IN FILLING IN THE BOXES ON THE REPORT FORM—People who submit reports, relatively frequently, place data in the wrong box, an error that requires significant amounts of our time to amend and correct.  When filling out the report form, please be sure that you are entering the data you wish to include in your report in the correct box, and in the proper format.
2. PERSONAL INFORMATION—Witnesses submitting reports all too frequently fail to heed our request that they not enter personal data, e.g. the names of witnesses, detailed address information, spouses’ and children’s names, the names of pets, social media contact information, etc..  When we encounter that type of personal information in a report,  we are compelled to amend the report, to preserve the anonymity of the witness(es), all of which takes precious time.  When filling out the Report Form, please use the Personal Information boxes for recording names, and other personal information that could be exploited for the purpose of identifying witnesses.  We are unable to guarantee a person’s anonymity, if they place heir name, address, and telephone number in the portion of their report that will be posted publicly!
3. PROFANITY/HOAXES—Profanity seems to have become almost ubiquitous in our society, but we take the position that it has no place in a UFO sighting report.  Please refrain from using profanity in your report.  Also, we are receiving a significant number of seemingly hoaxed written reports, as well as a large volume prank calls over our telephone hotline, which is wasting a great deal of our time.  Please refrain from using our valuable service for the purpose of amusement!  We thank you in advance!
