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.

The pessimists and cynics will say that humans will never reach a state of stable international
peace, but I hold the opposing view that we will, because we will have to. Humans have many
faults and foibles, but when all is said and done, we are survivors - and adapt extraordinarily well
to circumstances threatening our survival. Certainly, the current situation of weapons of mass
destruction proliferating into the hands of every unstable dictatorship is such a circumstance. And
while there may yet be disastrous consequences, these will only serve to galvanize humans into
doing what must be done to survive:Adapt and evolve into a peaceful, stable global civilization.
Putting this debate aside for now, let us contemplate a 'down-loading' of these advanced
extraterrestrial technologies in a setting of international stability and peace.
These technologies are not polluting fossil fuels or radioactive nuclear power, but are completely
revolutionary energy systems which are non-linear, zero-point type technologies. That is, there
is a background source of limitless energy which is omnipresent in the universe, even in deep
space, and these devices 'tap into' this energy. The result is vast amounts of energy generated,
and, in defiance of the 'law of thermodynamics', more energy is obtained than is put into the
system .
Without going into a long discussion of propulsion systems which propel vehicles at beyond the
speed of light (allegedly impossible according to 20th century physics) or of 'bending' space-time,
or of negating the effects of gravity and mass inertia, or of non-linear communications systems
which interface directly with mind or thought, or a myriad other considerations related to
advanced ET technology, let us simply state that these technologies are many quanta ahead of
current technology on earth.
What are the implications of such technologies being applied around the world?
>The Environment, which is being degraded at an alarming rate primarily due to the
burning of fossil fuels and the relative scarcity of energy, would be greatly assisted, if not saved
by the widespread application of such technology. For the most part, the earth is still in the
1800s as far as energy generation, transportation and related technologies are concerned. The
internal combustion engine reigns supreme, as does gas, oil and coal as sources of energy. Aside
from being the chief sources of pollution of the air and water, their relative scarcity results in a
further cost and efficiency related inability to 'scrub' other sources of pollution from waterways,
chemical processing, manufacturing and the like. Such inefficiencies, scarcity and intrinsically
polluting qualities of the current world energy system are literally killing the earth. The
application of advanced ET energy systems would completely reverse this situation.
>When it takes only minutes - instead of 12-14 hours - to go from asia to New York, the
world will truly be a global village. Indeed, the need for vast, inefficient and dehumanizing
metropolises will no longer exist, since both communications and transportation will allow small
towns and villages to have access to each other instantly. This will result in a transformation in
the nature and function of society unequaled in recorded history.
>The relative scarcity of energy, and hence of resources generally, has resulted in a vast
inequality among the poor and rich nations of the world. The application of these ET
