CEFAA-NARCAP
Joint Research and
Publications
    We are pleased to announce that NARCAP has signed an official research agreement with
the UAP research team of Chile,
CEFAA - The Committee for the Study of Anomalous
Aerial Phenomena. Both organizations have recognized that we share common observations
and concerns and that a formal research pact could be mutually beneficial. In mid-December
2010 the documents were signed by the Chilean Director General of the DGAC - Dirección
General de Aeronáutica Civil, General Jose Huepe and Director of CEFAA, General  Ricardo
Bermudez, and by NARCAP Chief Scientist Dr. Richard Haines and NARCAP Executive
Director Ted Roe.  
(See the texts of the documents click here).

    CEFAA and NARCAP both seek to maintain high standards of research with the intent of
presenting the most reliable data possible on unidentifed aerial phenomena (UAP). The
specific concern for aviation safety by NARCAP is recognized by CEFAA and was also in
consideration as we prepared stipulations for the agreement. It is recognized that both
organizations are concerned with presenting transparency and will publish all research when
both organizations are in agreement.

   General Bermudez is to be commended for taking this very important step in initiating a
multinational effort to directly address the UAP issue. We hope that this will be the first step
in encouraging the official UAP research teams of the world and private efforts to collect and
present documentation worthy of engagement by both the aviation and the scientific
community. Further, we want to encourage those nations that have not yet established serious
and effective scientific inquiries into UAP activity within their borders to do so and assist us in
resolving the true source and nature of UAP.
