Reflections on a Decade of Research

The journal spanning 2010 to 2019 highlights significant developments in the study of unidentified anomalous phenomena, focusing on projects such as Skinwalker Ranch. It discusses the abrupt cessation of funding for research initiatives that were gaining traction, specifically a comprehensive database meant to catalog 240,000 UFO cases. The disruption halted progress at a critical moment when advancements, including the application of artificial intelligence for data analysis, were on the verge of realization. This reflection emphasizes the challenges faced as the scientific community navigates past projects that now exist in silos, underscoring the need for shared resources and frameworks to advance future investigations.
