advancing the study of unidentified aerospace phenomena through interdisciplinary dialogue
The Society for UAP Studies is a nonprofit 501 (c)(3) organization that seeks to bring together serious thinkers (both academics and professionals) who are committed to advancing the study of the UAP phenomenon to the next level of rigorous scholarly engagement. The Society's primary output is the biannual, peer-reviewed journal Limina.
As a learned society, our goal is to collaborate closely with academic institutions to foster the development of an empirically responsible ecosystem of exchange among academics and professionals dedicated to UAP Studies. We firmly believe that this ecosystem should uphold the values of free, open, and unapologetic curiosity while maintaining the rigorous standards of critical skepticism. It is through this skepticism that the empirical disciplines have historically guarded against speculative or interpretive anarchy, and we aim to uphold and continue this tradition.

June Seminar Series
Investigating UAP Scientifically
Lecturer: Dr. Massimo Teodorani
In a series of four intensive seminars, noted UAP researcher Dr. Massimo Teodorani discusses his fascinating research studying the many aspects of UAP, focusing on their observed physical characteristics.
Feb 3 - 5, 2023
An Online Virtual Event
Foundations, Frontiers, and Future Prospects of UAP Studies
Limina's Inaugural Symposium!
Note: the event has now ended, as has the on-demand access period through our conferencing vendor vFairs. However, we are in the process of making the videos of the talks available through this website, which will host the content from Limina's recent event.
Affiliate Research Organizations
The Society is developing much-needed infrastructure for cooperation and informational exchange among all serious UAP research organizations around the world. This infrastructure will also provide an opportunity for interfacing between these groups and the academic community at large who are serious about the rigorous study of the phenomena.
Here you will learn about each organization affiliated with the Society, including their ongoing and active research projects, their staffing or volunteer needs and their funding requirements. You will also have a change to connect with the leaders of these pioneering research efforts, and explore membership opportunities to see if you can be part of their important work.
If you are part of such an organization, please reach out to us and get connected!
UFODAP
The UFO Data Acquisition Project (UFODAP) objective is to enable UAP/UFO research by deployment of advanced data collection technology. Their systems are employed by a number of cutting-edge UAP research organizations around the world, including UAPx.
UAP TRACKER
UAP Tracker is a daily live stream on YouTube watching the skies for anomalous events. Interesting events captured on the live stream and from motion tracking software are uploaded after the live stream ends. Links are then posted in the recorded live stream video description and comment sections. It features consumer grade technology available from online stores
GEP - Society for Research into the UFO Phenomenon (Germany)
The Society for Research into the UFO Phenomenon has been serving as a non-profit organization in Germany for 50 years as a contact point for sighting reports and questions on the subject of Unidentified Flying Objects - UFOs or Unidentified Aerial Phenomena - UAP .
As a civil citizen science organization, the GEP is committed to the principles of honest scientific practice in researching the UFO phenomenon and has been an associated member of the Interdisciplinary Research Center for Extraterrestrials (IFEX) at the Julius Maximilian University of Würzburg since 2022.
CONCEPTUAL WORKSHOPS
creating the concepts we need
Virtual Workshops
SUAPS intends to develop a number of virtual workshops for the purposes of doing fundamental research on a number of key areas of UAP studies in need of further conceptual development. One area of interest would be the intersection of UAP and consciousness studies. Another area of interest would be the role of fundamental physics in explaining the UAP phenomenon.
COURSES
The Society is launching a series of online courses (both traditional semester-long classes, and shorter seminars) that look at the UAP enigma from various academic disciplinary approaches. Our curriculum will emphasize the more foundational questions that arise for the study of such a difficult subject.
