This is a CSETI Project Starlight comprehensive briefing document, prepared by Steven M. Greer, M.D., director of the Center for the Study of Extraterrestrial Intelligence, and dated April 1997. It contains CSETI position papers arguing that the US government secretly holds extraterrestrial craft and that covert management of the subject threatens national security, along with letters to President Clinton seeking disclosure. It also includes government records, among them an FAA Charlotte Tower re-recording of a December 1977 police helicopter sighting.

• Up to this time, such massive and open contact has not been necessary,
and has not been consonant with their overall long-term mission and
purpose.
■ A Plan is in place to allow for gradually broader and deeper contact with human
society and individuals so that humans may become accustomed to the reality
of other intelligent beings in the universe, and so that needed research and
observation may take place on both sides. Limited but increasing opportunities
for bilateral and human initiated contact will occur in the reasonably near future.
■ Sudden and large scale contact will occur only in the event of a significant
worldwide emergency (manmade or natural).
■ While ET observation and interaction with earth is probably an ancient as
opposed to purely modem phenomenon, the marked increase in activity
coinciding with Wortd War 11 and the dawning of the "nuclear age" indicates that
ETI are quite concerned about this transitional stage of human social evolution.
■ Extraterrestrial intelligence (ETI) technology is strictly guarded by both ETI and
human governmental agencies because of its potential for military applications
which would greatly threaten wortd security. It is imperative that this technology
not find significant human applications until such time as the earth is ready for it
■ The US government, at least at the level of a highly compartmentalized top
secret group, has known about the reality of these ETS and their occupants
since at least 1947. A strict secrecy has been maintained due to:
•
•
•
•
Fear of public panic and social disruption;
Security issues surrounding possible military and technology application
of ETI technology, especially in the setting of a wortd beset with Cold
War tensions and competing interests;
Uncertainty and mistrust regarding ETI motives and intentions;
Embarrassment and consternation over human military inability to
secure world air space from repeated penetrations by ETS.
■ The U.S. government possesses several ETSs and the deceased bodies of
several EBEs.
■ The nature of "reality" of these craft and these beings has been incorrectly
characterized by some as belonging to "another dimension and reality" from this
dimension. Unfortunately, these statements are made without fully considering
what "this reality" is. A more correct understanding of this is that the Full
