LITTLE ROCK, Arkansas – October 5, 2023 – Since the mid-twentieth century, public
interest in unidentified flying objects (UFOs) has been great. Since 2017, the momentum
toward acknowledgement of UFOs has grown even more. Now called unidentified aerial
phenomena (UAP) by the U.S. government, objects with extraordinary flight capabilities
have been witnessed by airline pilots, military personnel, and ordinary citizens from the
1940s through the present.
Since 1969, the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) has pursued the scientific study of the
UFO phenomena through field research, member education, and public outreach. Now
an international organization, MUFON is based in Cincinnati, OH, with chapters such as
Arkansas MUFON serving members at the local level.
Arkansas MUFON regularly holds public meetings in Little Rock. The next meeting will
be held on Saturday, October 21, 2023, at 3 pm CDT, in the Community Room of the
Fletcher Branch Library of the Central Arkansas Library System (823 N. Buchanan St.,
Little Rock, AR 72205). MUFON members, their guests, and all members of the public
genuinely interested in ufology are invited for open discussion on UFOs/UAP and
ongoing MUFON programs.
