- CENTRO ITALIANO STUDI UFOLOGICI -

I am happy to advise all that the MUFONET COMMUNICATIONS
GROUP, AstroNet BBS Network - Australia, and MufoNet BBS
Network, have joined forces with the prestigious Italian UFO
research organization "CENTRO ITALIANO STUDI UFOLOGICI"
(CISU, Italian Center for UFO STUDIES), headed by Maurizio
Verga, MUFON Member, Researcher and Author.

Mr. Verga has had a number of research papers published in
the MUFON "Journal", a number of international UFO
magazines, as well as contributing chapters to the
anthologies "UFOs 1947-1987" and "PHENOMENON".

He has produced the Italian catalogue of close encounters
(ITACAT), the Italian catalogue of physical traces
associated with UFO phenomena (TRACAT, now in it's third
edition), and the Italian catalogue of UFO photographs
(PHOTOCAT).

In 1986 Maurizio Verga started the Italian Computer UFO
Network, and in 1987 created the very first European UFO
Bulletin Board System, currently based in Rome.

He also publishes a newsletter, "The Computer UFO
Newsletter", a English language publication.

Maurizio has amassed a huge amount of UFO documents,
sighting reports, photos of faked "UFO' or natural phenomena/conventional causes, photos of Italian ground
traces associated with UFO phenomena, sketches and
newsclippings dealing with Italian close encounter cases.

CISU and the MUFONET COMMUNICATIONS GROUP have selected a
avenue of media transfer and the exchange of data, photos
and documents have begun. We are also in the process of
establishing communication links with the European UFO
Bulletin Board System.

All data, photographs, newsletters, catalogues and
newsclippings will be available to MUFON Members and the
Public, through the AstroNet BBS Network - Australia and
the MufoNet BBS Network. The amount of available data is
enormous, to say the least, and we look forward to this
excellent exchange of communications!
