Ufology, sometimes written UFOlogy, (US: /juːˈfɑːlədʒi/ or UK: /juːˈfɒlədʒi/)^[1] is the investigation of unidentified flying objects (UFOs) by people who believe that they may be of extraordinary origins (most frequently of extraterrestrial alien visitors).^[2][3] While there are instances of government, private, and fringe science investigations of UFOs, ufology is generally regarded by skeptics and science educators as an example of pseudoscience.
