The Chilean Military and Ufology: An Asymmetrical Relationship
by Raul Nunez, IIEE
Translated by Scott Corrales 
The purpose of the foregoing is to illustrate the environment in which the UFO community exists with its eternal arguments. We can only believe that there “is no real conviction about reaching the end of the so-called UFO phenomenon” and everything else is superfluous and is only fodder for the press, and used by others to promote themselves on TV screens and other media outlets.
Who’s to blame for all this? Shared responsibility. Moreover when the subject of ufology worldwide is in the hands of non-specialized communication media and people who are unprepared for a real study of the phenomenon. If we add to this the almost non-existent budget available for such projects, little can be asked from it, much less transparency in actions of this sort. These projects are generally hobbled from the start, and only the enthusiasm and passion of some people leads to small achievements in very specific matters.
Finally, we must remember that the CEFAA (Comité de Estudios de Fenómenos Aéreos Anómalos) announced its return to the scene in December 2009. Given its prior performance, this announcement did not inspire much confidence in the national UFO community. One always must expect second efforts to be better than the first, particularly from errors committed along the way. Only time will tell.
