Nautilus Foundation

The Nautilus Foundation (Polish: Fundacja Nautilus) is a Polish non-profit foundation dedicated to the study and popularisation of unexplained phenomena, including UFOs, crop circles, reincarnation and orbs. It was established in 2001 by a group of media professionals: journalist Joanna Karwat, film producer Małgorzata Corvalan, director Jarosław Żamojda and journalist Robert Bernatowicz. According to its statute, the foundation's purpose is to seek answers to fundamental human questions — what is the purpose of human life, is there life after death, and whether Earth is visited by alien civilisations and, if so, why they do not contact us. The foundation is based in a single-family house near Warsaw and operates on a modest, grassroots scale. Its activities include field research, publishing and public events. It owns an old camper van fitted with amateur research equipment, nicknamed the "Nautmobile". In 2003 it conducted research into crop circles in Wylatowo, a small village in the Kuyavian-Pomeranian Voivodeship, and in 2005 it initiated the creation of a monument commemorating the so-called Emilcin UFO incident. The foundation's work has been the subject of criticism from other paranormal-themed organisations and websites. It maintains an official website at nautilus.org.pl, which publishes articles, reader-submitted accounts of unusual experiences, a "Captain's Log" (Dziennik Pokładowy) and event announcements, including author meetings such as one with Robert Bernatowicz at the "Nieznany Świat" bookshop-gallery in Warsaw.

The Nautilus Foundation was founded in 2001 by four Polish media figures: journalist Joanna Karwat, film producer Małgorzata Corvalan, director Jarosław Żamojda and journalist Robert Bernatowicz. Its stated statutory aim is to seek answers to the most important questions a person can ask — the purpose of human life, whether there is life after death, and whether Earth is visited by alien civilisations and, if so, why they do not make contact. The foundation is headquartered in a single-family house near Warsaw and operates with modest resources. It owns an old camper van equipped with amateur research equipment, known as the "Nautmobile". In 2003 the foundation conducted research into crop circles in Wylatowo, a small village in the Kuyavian-Pomeranian Voivodeship. In 2005, on the foundation's initiative, a monument was erected to commemorate the so-called Emilcin UFO incident. The foundation's activities have drawn criticism from other organisations and websites dealing with paranormal topics. It maintains an official website at nautilus.org.pl, which publishes articles on unexplained phenomena, reader-submitted accounts, a "Captain's Log" (Dziennik Pokładowy) and announcements of events such as author meetings — for example, a meeting with Robert Bernatowicz at the "Nieznany Świat" bookshop-gallery in Warsaw concerning his book "Jestem z gwiazd. Moje życie, UFO, reinkarnacja".
