Our mission
Three fundamental assumptions
A growing body of evidence suggests that progress across physics, engineering, and other fields has been held back for decades to conceal what the study of UAP revealed. We pursue that science in the open, and publish what we find. Three assumptions shape the work.
-
Reality is richer than we know. Consensus understanding of the nature of reality is inadequate to explain existing data. We take that seriously and investigate what others dismiss.
-
Frameworks are incomplete. Conventional physics, mathematics, and science are powerful but incomplete. We pursue the extensions and new paradigms needed to account for all observations.
-
Anomalies are data. Anomalous phenomena, from UAP encounters to other observations that resist explanation, provide valid data points that could expose the limits of current models when studied rigorously.
Our approach
Incomplete physics holds everything back
The body of UAP evidence points somewhere uncomfortable: core principles of physics and science are incomplete. Every field resting on those principles is then advancing more slowly than it could, and so is the civilization built on them.
The hardest part is that we do not know what we do not know.
-
Decades of backlog. Stigma has left gaps across physics, engineering, archaeology, medicine, and other disciplines. Gaps compound: what went unstudied in the 1990s is still unstudied, and so is everything downstream.
-
A duty to look. Professionals are trained to follow evidence. This evidence was set aside because studying it was socially expensive, not because it was studied and dismissed.
-
Room, and need. A wide range of skills and backgrounds is not merely welcome here. The work does not get done without it. If any of that sounds like something you could help with, it probably is.

Built by volunteers, open to everyone
This site and the research platform behind it were built by volunteers, and both are free to use. In every discipline, there is more work than there are people to do it, so a wide range of skills and backgrounds is needed rather than merely welcome.
-
A community that takes you seriously. Collaborate with people who neither dismiss the subject nor overstate it, working together to uphold the rigor of the inquiry and the validity of its results.
-
A research platform. Work out which questions are worth investigating, then design the study, gather the evidence, and write up what you find — all on a dedicated collaboration platform built for the work.
-
Results that go somewhere. Findings are peer-reviewed inside the community, then published more widely so others can build on them.
-
Anyone can contribute. 78 public projects and 45 subprojects spanning ten research topics are available today, and more are being added. You can also apply to start your own project.
-
Training when a project needs it. Pick up the specific skills the work calls for, from experimental design to plain-language writing. Building
-
Member-run. Everyone is equal, policy and financial decisions go to a majority vote, and anyone can propose a project.
