The first scientific and technical meeting on the study of anomalous phenomena in the atmosphere has been conducted in 1981 year. The Section nachiyear collection and analysis of UFO reports over Ukraine, holds republican meeting (in fact it lasted until 1999 year, when the health of its leader Pisarenko, could no longer located at its helm).

During this period, began an active gathering of information about UFOs, Special treatment is allowed to transfer it to the level of scientific evidence. The transition from indirect to direct the study of UFOs modern scientific and technological means. And though there was a qualitative leap forward in recognizing the problem of UFOs, nevertheless, development of the industry (not only in Ukraine, but throughout the Soviet Union) hampered by censorship on the UFO publications until the late 1980s.

"Perestroika and glasnost 'Mikhail Gorbachev gave a real opportunity for the further development of the UFO research to a new level.

In 1989 Glavlit, the Office of the USSR with the support of the Council of Ministers abolished the previously existing restrictions on publication of information about UFOs. As a result,, Ukraine, Like all former members of the Soviet Union, up to 1992-1993 he. experienced a real boom in UFO.

In the late 1980s — the early 1990s, virtually all over Ukraine have already had their UFO section, Associations and Societies (in Donetsk, Kharkov, Kiev ...). They grew up, like mushrooms after the rain, making up for lost time (similar work abroad, especially in the U.S., progressed and went through a period of profound qualitative changes). Appears specialized literature on the bookshelves and newsstands (for example, Ukrainian anthology of paranormal phenomena and esoteric knowledge "Stalker" — published in Dnepropetrovsk with 1990 year, Republican newspaper "ufologist Ukraine" — published UKUFAS[1] from October 1991 year, literary and popular-science magazine for lovers of photography, Travel, History and Culture, unusual phenomena, Adventures, UFOs and fantasy "Neposeda» — published in Kharkov in January 1992 year, etc.), removed non-fiction films ("In Search of Aliens", 1987 was; "UFO s 1908…», 1991 was; "UFO over Odessa", 1991 was, etc.). It should be mentioned and the cycles of scientific and educational television Andrei Vsevolodovich Dmitruk — "The reality of the impossible" and "Dialogue of the sphinx", and cognitive science program "Svichado" creative association "Science" (national TV channels), which has repeatedly raised the problem of UFO and other paranormal phenomena topic, accompanying "UFO phenomenon".

To combat illiteracy UFO UFO schools were organized. These courses have worked at the center of "Status" (Kiev) and at the Kiev Institute of Civil Aviation (КИИГА). Very popular and respected among the Ukrainian ufologists in the early 1990s, and enjoyed the Moscow school of UFO "Basis" with "Soyuzufotsentre" (subsequently "Ufotsentr"). Many self-respecting publication periodically publish a chronology of appearances of UFOs, a kind of "lessons ufology".

But, followed by the rapid development of public interest in the new and trendy topic, all of a sudden it's quiet. In December 1991 , in the Bialowieza Forest Agreement was signed by well-known, after which Ukraine declared its independence. Unfortunately, becoming an independent state, Ukraine is in poor condition. Not having its own energy and natural resources, its uncompetitive economy very soon proved to be in poor condition. The first steps in Ukraine as an independent power were difficult and painful. In such a situation in the country UFOlogy, of course, relegated to the last plan. And the, break off a strong Ukrainian-Russian relations, Most sections of the UFO suspend their research work. In general,, UFO structure of Ukraine has undergone considerable changes, What was the primary cause of political instability in the country.
