Regional and Local Experts on UFOs and Paranormal Activity to Speak at Annual Symposium at UNO

The Symposium features lectures on the investigations, science, and history around UFOs and paranormal history. The UNO MUFON UFO Society and local groups the Omaha UFO Study Group, Omaha/Bellevue CSETI and Nebraska MUFON collaborate to organize the symposium and bring the lecturers to Omaha.

“The purpose of our study group – and this event in particular – is to look at the logical, scientific and rational explanations of the UFO phenomenon,” said Dave Pares, adjunct professor of geography and meteorology at UNO and faculty advisor for the UNO MUFON UFO Study Group. “But, we like to have fun and are open to exploring all kinds of evidence.” 

The event will run from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. Free parking will be available on campus. For more information, contact Kyle Finley (kfinley@unomaha.edu) or Dave Pares (402-651-9670). 

MUFON chapters in Nebraska bring together UFO enthusiasts with an interest in research, study and deeper exploration of the UFO/ET Phenomenon.
