The UFO Community Still Believes —And Science Is Starting To Listen

Yeah, we could.* Scientists were involved in various military examinations from 1948 to the Condon Report. But those studies were unsatisfying to the UFO community (and outside your 50 yr window). And I'm guessing you would dismiss those studies as not "true" since you added that qualifier for a reason. I don't think an acceptable "true" study could be done. It would never be able to tick all the boxes, and null results would be brushed aside as a coverup like others have been. UFO phenomena are inherently difficult to study. MUFON still gets money to try and had scientists on their roster, but they didn't do much. Ultimately, the assumption that UFOs involve physical aliens is too narrow an assumption.
*Note all the astronomers and astrophysicists who are peeking into space all the time and not finding UFOs.

Can you cite or quote any true scientific studies done on the nature of the ufo enigma over the last 50 years
