FBI Majestic 12 file (mirror)

The Black Vault · 25 pages · text by GLM-OCR

This FBI file, mirrored by The Black Vault, collects Bureau records on the Majestic 12 document. It opens with a Dallas communication from 1988 about local publicity and a 1952 briefing paper for President-elect Eisenhower that claims a crashed disc and four bodies were recovered near Roswell. The file also holds a later FBIHQ teletype and a 1991 Salt Lake City airtel. The FBI teletype reports that Air Force OSI called the document fabricated and "completely bogus" and orders Dallas to close the case.

A covert analytical effort organised by Gen. Training and Dr. Bush acting on the direct orders of the President resulted in a preliminary consensus (19 September, 1947) that the disc was most likely a short range reconnaissance craft. This conclusion was based for the most part on the craft's size and the apparent lack of any identifiable provisioning. (See Attachment "D".) A similar analysis of the four dead occupants was arranged by Dr. Bronk. It was the tentative conclusion of this group (30 November, 1947) that although these creatures are human-like in appearance, their biological and evolutionary processes responsible for their development has apparently been quite different from those observed or postulated in homo-sapiens. Dr. Bronk's them has suggested the term "Extra-terrestrial biological Entities", or "EREs", be adopted as the standard term of reference for these creatures until such time as a more definitive designation can be agreed upon.

Since it is virtually certain that these craft do not originate in any country on earth, considerable speculation has centered around what their point of origin might be and how they get here. Mars has still remains a possibility, although some scientists, most notably Dr. Denzel consider it more likely that we are dealing with beings from another solar system entirely.

Numerous examples of what appear to be a form of writing were found in the package. Efforts to decipher these have remained largely unsuccessful (See Attachment "E"). Equally unsuccessful have been efforts to determine the method of propulsion or the nature or method of transmission of the power source involved. Research along these lines has been complicated by the complete absence of identifiable wings, propellers, joists, or other conventional methods of propulsion and guidance, as well as a total lack of metallic wiring, which tubes, or similar recognizable electronic components. (See Attachment "P".) It is assumed that the propulsion unit was completely destroyed by the explosion which caused the crash.
