Ufology

From Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A Swedish Air Force officer searches for a "ghost rocket" in Lake Kölmjärv, Norrland, Sweden, in July 1946.

Ufology is the search for and research of unidentified flying objects by people who called ufologists. The term was coined by Edward J. Ruppelt.[1] Mainstream scientists have greeted this topic with skepticism, dismissing ufology as pseudoscience.[2]
