NEWPORT BEACH, CA – DECEMBER 21, 2016 – The Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) announced that the organization has investigated more than 7,000 UFO cases within the last year.
In addition to the number of UFO investigations in 2016, the organization also has engaged more than 1,000 cases of non‐human entity encounters reported by individuals to MUFON and handled through its Experiencer Research Team.
“For more than four decades, MUFON has been at the forefront of research and investigation into the UFO and ET phenomenon reported to the organization daily by the general public,” stated MUFON Executive Director Jan C. Harzan. “Our Field Investigators and Experiencer Research Team not only do an excellent job helping our witnesses and experiencers deal with what they have seen, but they do so with an eye for research on this important subject.”
“If we are to continue to promote research on UFOs and educate the public on its potential impact on society, we need the proper tools,” said Harzan. “MUFON has several new underwriting opportunities so that all of the people out there who are as passionate as we are about UFO research can provide support and play a role in furthering our mission.”
MUFON’s new projects and underwriting opportunities include:
• A mobile friendly UFO reporting system.
• An improved website that is easier to navigate and that features a member’s-only section with exclusive information and perks.
• A more robust UFO archive system for storing and retrieving UFO sighting information.
• An updated UFO research library.
• A new experiencer questionnaire to help determine the needs of those who encounter other-worldly entities.
The mission of MUFON is to investigate the hundreds of reports the organization receives monthly from around the world, as well as to research, investigate and report the findings using the scientific method.
