The NICAP  web site was born on December 15, 1997 and was designed to be a primary internet UFO evidence depository for special evidence and other important information regarding serious UFO research. With the use of simple directories the files are listed by Category, in most cases using a comprehensive list of events. This gives us a "work list" of things we've accomplished and things we have yet to do. We ask that anyone who has information regarding cases listed, but not found on the site page, to contact us.

The  GSID and the Site Search Engine, both found on the Home Page, are gargantuan tools for the researcher. Reports of all types can be found with the GSID master link links, and anything on the site server can be found using the search engine.

We encourage everyone to work towards both quantitative and qualitative entries. By filing the evidence into directories we have made it very easy to locate what we have or don't yet have. Researchers can quickly locate the topic of their choice. The evidence selected is not only time-tested, but it is also qualified by keeping it isolated from the lights-in-the-sky" and other candidates for IFO's.

Suggestions, comments, criticisms, are welcome.
