NASA released 207 pages in full, 7 in part and withheld 31, noting that most of the lawsuit case files had been destroyed under records retention rules. The enclosures include court declarations, a 2003 appeal decision ordering a broader search, a 2019 FOIA response, and Stan Gordon's account of the missing NASA fragology files.

storage file searching by name for organizations that may have had an interest in Fragology,
space object recovery, or analysis of fragments to determine national ownership and vehicle
origin. Search of both the telephone directory and the division storage files produced no
findings.
