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.

operations exist in the private aspects of the military industrial sector, with apparently extra-
constitutional funding and oversight.
As such, and until established otherwise to our satisfaction, we regard these operations, and all
so-called 'security oaths' derived from them, as illegal, and therefore non-binding for these
witnesses mentioned above.
Therefore, UNLESS OTHERWISE DIRECTED BY I JANUARY 1997, we will move forward
with a series of events whereby these witnesses may provide open, public testimony. If we do
not hear from you, or if we hear that you concur, we will proceed with a public disclosure after
that date. Only if you notify us specifically that such witnesses to UFO/ETI related matters are
still bound to silence will our plans for a disclosure by them be altered. As mentioned in previous
briefings and documents to members of the Administration, the military, the Congress and others,
it is our intent to effect this disclosure in a way which is scientific, forward looking and hopeful.
It is not our intent to cause instability for our nation or the world, but , rather , to mitigate the
clear dangers which current covert management of this issue presents. We invite your advice,
assistance and support in this process of disclosure on a matter which is arguably the most
important of the twentieth and early twenty first centuries.
Testimony from these witnesses will include but not be limited to:
>Retrieval of disabled extraterrestrial devices and extraterrestrial life forms
>Reve..;e-engineering projects related to extraterrestrial technology
>Reconnaissance and tracking of UFO/Extraterrestrial vehicles
>Covert projects related to the subject
>Confirmation of military/UFO encounter cases
>The nature and scope of disinformation programs related to the subject
We hope to hear from you regarding this matter as soon as possible.
Thank you for your attention to this request for a determination on the status of these witnesses
as it relates to providing public testimony during 1997.
Respectfully,
Steven M. Greer M.D.
Director of CSETI
