The Scientific Coalition for UAP Studies is a volunteer research organization promoting data-driven, peer-engaged investigation of unidentified aerospace phenomena.
The Scientific Coalition for UAP Studies is a nonprofit group of scientists, engineers, analysts, academics, and other professionals seeking rigorous study of unidentified aerospace phenomena. Formed in the 2010s, SCU publishes case analyses, holds conferences, supports research projects, and advocates collection standards intended to move the subject beyond anecdote and stigma.
Its work applies methods from physics, astronomy, aerospace engineering, statistics, and sensor analysis to selected cases. Volunteer expertise permits multidisciplinary review but does not guarantee access to complete military data or uniform quality across projects. Technical papers are most persuasive when datasets, assumptions, calculations, and alternative explanations are visible to outside reviewers. SCU is membership-based rather than a university laboratory and relies heavily on volunteer labor. Its conferences allow researchers to present work in progress, while its research library preserves case reports and technical arguments. The coalition has also supported calls for government data access and standardized civilian instrumentation, placing it alongside projects such as the Galileo Project without making their methods identical.
SCU has analyzed prominent imagery and supported broader arguments for scientific UAP research. It also engages with government, academic, and civilian initiatives. A case remaining unexplained after coalition review does not establish a non-human cause; it identifies the limits of the data and hypotheses tested.
The organization’s significance is institutional persistence. It gives technically trained volunteers a forum, preserves methods, and presses for better UAP data collection. Its long-term credibility depends on correction, publication of negative results, independent replication, and clear boundaries between scientific findings and members’ personal interpretations.
Inside the Pentagon's Anomaly Office | Reality Check
In this episode of Reality Check, Ross Coulthart sits down with physicist Dr. Randy Bostick, former science advisor to the Pentagon office that investigates unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAP), the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO), at the Scientific Coalition for UAP Studies conference in Toronto.

I would like to go to this but work may make it difficult bc March is packed for me next year.

I wrote part of this up for a reply I was writing then expanded on it for this post. I noticed some connections related to the SCU founding and also discovered the recent SCU reply to the 2025 AARO Aguadilla report that I hadn't seen before so I wanted to share it along with the baseline status of the 2013 Aguadilla case as it stands. -- The public conversation about the 2013 Aguadilla case arguably began in earnest with the publication of The Scientific Coalition for UAP Studies (SCU) report...
Remember what @jaystratton said at the June 2025 SCU conference? "Less than one in ten people in this country, and probably across the world is even lower, are paying attention to this topic. They're just not." ~Jay Stratton For the most part, that still holds today. How do we change that? Various governments around the world need to release all of their UFO/UAP data and analysis, and making announcements that this is real would help. And even then, there's no guarantee people will take this...
