The BUFORA ( British UFO Research Association ) Is a major British organization which aims to deepen through a scientific approach to the UFO phenomenon in its various forms. We present below a description of model which is completed by a witness who is planning an alert. The following information may be useful to identify what elements to take into greater account in the event of a UFO sighting. The document is divided into several sections: a summary and other 7 sections marked by letters of the alphabet.

• The summary must be completed dall'inquirente that is responsible for reporting and contains some information on the state investigation (completed or in progress), who is involved in the survey, date, time and place of the first sighting classification the second Vallee method And a assessment of the phenomenon.

• Section A ( Biographical summary ) Is intended to collect Biographical information on witness in question, such as name, surname, address, other contact details, date of birth, employment, training, interests and hobbies. This information is essential to give a first evaluation the reliability of the witness, because in general, a person of age is not too advanced or too young, with a significant and that has never shown particular interest in the UFO phenomenon is the reliability of a young boy, full of fantasy and always chasing flying discs.

• Section B ( Written account ) Is entirely devoted to a written record of what from the point of view of the witness, this section leaves room for additional data that can not fall in the subsequent classification schemes, personal feelings and impressions given by one who has witnessed the phenomenon.

• Section C ( Object characteristics ) Comes instead in detail on characteristics of Reserving a space for a sketch, the number of objects, color and brightness than the full moon, sounds and smells that could be perceived.

• Section D ( Object position ) Allows you to mark on the two drawings position from the point of observation in terms of altitude and direction Initial and final.

• Section E ( The physical observation of the charcateristics ) Instead collects the objective data at the time of observation, as date , hours , duration of , An instrument with which they are measured data (a clock, or just a feeling, to assess the accuracy) and place . The questions then return to focus on, asking you to specify as it was originally noticed its presence and disappeared as from its visual and its size compared to full moon. It then asks if I am available evidence like photos or videos to regain the object. Is asked to identify other witnesses happened.

• Section F ( Other characteristics relating to the observation ) Is one of the most interesting because it explicitly to bring their own impressions unexplained phenomena and we could call paranormal. We ask for example if the environment or the observer himself has suffered from some physical effect presumably due from, the question, in itself very general, can include physical damage to anything, including the witnesses themselves (burns, wounds, and so on). We then move on to the issue of time , Asking if it was aware of the passage of time during the observation or if for example you had the feeling that it was a long time but the whole, the clock hand, could not be lasted more than a few minutes. It then leaves room for other Unusual sensations Witness all'avvistamento due. The section continues by asking whether some other event out of place or strange happened during the sighting and concludes by asking whether other witnesses had the same impressions about the above questions.

• Section G ( Prevailing weather during your observation ) Collects information on the weather, another key component to be recorded in the event of a UFO sighting. The weather conditions are evaluated according to the following criteria: visibility (clear, cloudy or foggy), Cloud cover (none, partial or total), precipitation (none, rain, snow or otherwise), wind (none, breeze, strong, stormy) and visibility of celestial bodies (stars, moon, sun, aurora borealis, or falling stars).
