Documents / FOIA release
This declassified CIA memorandum, dated 18 December 1952 and released in 2001, was sent to the Director of Central Intelligence by H. Marshall Chadwell, Assistant Director for Scientific Intelligence. It reports a briefing at the Air Technical Intelligence Center and finds no reasonable evidence that the objects are of foreign origin. It also plans a small panel of scientific consultants. An attached tab reviews the Tremonton film, a Maine light identified as Jupiter, and a Florida scoutmaster report.
