National Institute for Discovery Science
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The National Institute for Discovery Science was founded by Robert Bigelow as a way to channel funds into the proper scientific study of paranormal phenomena. They have done extensive research into the area of Cattle mutilation and also became the FAA's sole recipient for black triangle reports. Most famously they bought Skinwalker Ranch, when the news started breaking about it in 1996, and Deputy Administrator Colm Kelleher led the investigation for a number of years.
Due to their rather opaque nature rumours have circulated (predominantly online) about the NIDS. These largely revolve around their alleged connections with the military-industrial complex, with some even suggesting they are a CIA front organization. However, others, especially those in the UFO community, say they have proved a great help in funding investigations.
