These are external research resources, not confirmed UFO cases. Keywords also filter the guides; year, decade and location filters apply only to case records. No witness account is published through these links.
Public history. Private sources.
Only approved public summaries belong in this archive. Private correspondence, witness identities, contact details, precise private addresses and unapproved sighting information are excluded.
Dates and locations reflect the underlying record. Missing or disputed information should remain clearly identified rather than inferred.
