Over the past 100 years, there have been many sightings of unidentified flying objects. While this has often been credited to the sci-fi craze of the middle of the 20th Century, recent sightings by respected members of the military and captured video show that there is something out there that we can’t quite identify. The search is on to discover and fully document this phenomena so that we may understand more about it. THE SEARCH FOR UAPS is a game about this real-world search. You are astronomy enthusiasts and you’ve recently seen something in your evening stargazing that you can’t explain. Using your telescope, camera, and computer research, you’re trying to track down this Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP) to help the global scientific community gain a better understanding. While UAPs have been spotted all over the world, you’ll be focusing on the edge of space, where it is possible that these objects might be. This is a companion app for THE SEARCH FOR UAPS, which will randomly choose the locations for the UAP and other objects in orbit around Earth. Use your logical reasoning and deduction skills to investigate the skies, record your findings, and deduce where the UAP must be!
