– Under Blog, a comparison between some recent iridescent cloud pictures taken in Nepal and two pictures that had been collected by the UK MoD in their UFO files;

– A new reference document (under Document) pertaining to the topic of UFOs and Astronomers:  “A statistical survey among Italian astronomical observatories”

( Pittella, Massimo. UPIAR vol. 3 No. 1, 1978/79, pp. 307-315)

Abstract: This statistical survey was performed between the years 1977 and 1978, among the most important 14 astronomical and astrophysical observatories in Italy. It had the purpose to probe the opinion of a major slice of the Italian scientific community about the UFO subject and to know whether the staff of some observatories had directly sighted some UFO phenomena. This informative test did not supply us with new and unexpected information. However it is a clear document emphasizing the mediocre standard of information and sensibility of the scientific environment upon the UFO question. Such an investigation, if addressed to other scientific circles too and regularly repeated, could be a suitable way to assess time to time possible developments of the scientific opinion about the UFO subject.
