Some former UFOs have been explained, but several reports still remain mysteries. UFO sightings have occured for centuries and continue today in record numbers around the world. After the information is collected UFOlogists set up a base camp for a few days, weeks, or sometimes months to watch the night skies. Another way of finding UFOs is through associations. Members are also given the option of attending their chapter's regular meetings in which, of course, UFOs are discussed.
Members can become field investigator trainees before achieving the title of field investigator.
Get a telephone number with an answering machine or service for UFO reports. Also get an e-mail account, and perhaps set up a website that includes information about UFOs and encourages reports of sightings. Have 500 to 1,000 business cards printed with your name, purpose, telephone number, e-mail and website addresses. You might also consider placing ads in magazines requesting UFO information or sightings, and you could also attend UFO conferences and hand out your cards there. Equipment will be needed for the UFO hunt.
