I hope the contacts listed on the fact sheet are of use in your investigation of the
subject.
No Government agency is currently responsible for investigating UFO's because
there is no factual evidence that alien life exists on other planets or that UFO's
are related to aliens. I am enclosing our fact sheet explaining the history of
Government activity in UFO investigation. It includes sources you may contact for
further information.
Thank you for your letter of February 27, 1996, to President Clinton regarding
UFO's which was referred to NASA for reply.
