Consider two areas of research into unexplained aerial phenomena; Mainstream ufology, and Fringe UAP studies.
Mainstream; would include subjects that the majority of prominent ufologist would consider to be legitimate areas of research;
Including most unidentified aerial object sightings in the sky, major UAP events; like Roswell, Rendlesham Forest, the Phoenix Lights.
As well as alien abductions, crop circles, government conspiracy theory, Men in Black, cattle mutilations and ancient alien theory,
could all be considered part of the primary investigations of unidentified anomalous phenomena.
Fringe ufology; has to do with alien communications, contactees. Things like space wars, a secret space program, underground alien bases, reptilian conspiracy theory, shape shifters, UFO religions, hybrids, starseeds, walk-ins, alien DNA, with the idea that we are descendants from ETs, would also be included on the fringe of ufology.
The Mainstream study of unidentified flying objects is in itself a fringe science, (but not pseudoscience).
Fringe ufology is kind of a fringe, fringe, or a double fringe science, if you will. These concepts are not generally accepted in mainstream UAP doctrine. That does not necessarily mean they are any less real. However some stories may be nearly impossible to substantiate.
In the future, certain aspects of the fringe, could become mainstream, if they are more widely accepted by individuals in the unexplained aerial phenomena community.
