Importance of Ufology

The term ufology is one that is used to refer to the practice of analysis and study of UFOs or spacecraft that may come from abroad. This set of theories and hypotheses is disdained by many, from the scientific field to ordinary people who do not believe in the existence of external life, but it is at the same time respected and accepted by many people who dedicate a large part of their lives to investigating these issues.

Ufology comes, in its name, from the English term UFO which means unknown flying object or unidentified flying object, referring to all objects that can be considered spaceships or UFOs.

An origin driven by provocation

As real interest of human being, it is difficult to trace the history of ufology as philosophy of life since since time immemorial man has shown interest in learning about the possibility of finding non-human life from other planets. However, in terms of ufology itself, we could say that it has officially existed since the middle of the 20th century as part of the training of schools of investigation after World War II and in full Cold War.

This has to do with the existence of ideas about classified information that the United States government States hid about these phenomena and that they came to light in some way or another from the decade of 1950. Since then and up to the present, this type of research and hypothesis have grown and remain in force.

A questioned specialty that tries to reveal mysteries about the universe and government secrets

Although ufology is scorned by many and is not even considered an official science, reality tells us that it remains alive through the years and that there are who really believe in the testimonies collected, sightings of spaceships or unknown objects, in the reports made about situations incomprehensible events or experiences lived by people who still today do not understand what or how happened to them and who recount memories of situations that do not make sense to the human mind.

Although all these data must be taken with caution and great care, it is true that ufology tries to give explanations to issues that no one wants to understand and that even governments have hidden for a long time time. In this sense, ufology serves to bring light to dark and inexplicable aspects of human reality and the possibility of living in this universe together.
