NZDF declassified RNZAF UFO files
NZDF / RNZAF via Internet Archive · 2010-12 · 445 pages · text by OCR
This is a New Zealand Defence Force public release of RNZAF file AIR 39/3/3, "Flying Saucers," which covers 1952 to 1955 and was declassified in September 2010 under the Official Information Act. It collects sighting reports from the public and military personnel, press clippings, and a table of 1952 sightings. It also holds Carter Observatory opinions attributing some reports to meteors. A large part covers the inquiry into lights seen from National Airways Corporation Flight 108 on 31 October 1955, which the RNZAF could not fully explain as Venus.

# ysterious Light In Sky

Everything that we know leads us to conclude that at the present time the earth is the only body in the solar system that can support intelligent beings," said the professor.
Of the possibility of life on the planets of other suns, only an elementary knowledge of astronomy is needed to show that even if such life exists the distances are so enormous as to make ludicrous the thought of travel between neighbouring solar systems.
## Accurate Information Wanted
UNTIL such time as accurate information on the so-called unex-
tion at all to come to any conclusions. Analysis by untrained people in this kind of work will also be looked upon with suspicion unless the weight of evidence is such that it is overwhelming.
But seeing is believing, it is often said. If I ever see one of these things I shall be the first to admit it. Until then I do not believe the flying saucer phenomenon.
It is a nuisance in the absorption of time better spent in the prosecution of more important work.

# CAN'T SLEEP? JOIN F.S.I.S.
AUCKLAND, April 21 (PA). Fourteen people, including four women, met tonight in Hamilton and formed the Hamilton Flying Saucer Investigating Society.
Four of those present claimed to have seen flying saucers at various times, and one man said that since 1946 he had seen five of them.
ONE OF THE MOST RENOWNED of the flying saucer photographs. It was taken at 9.35am on July 16 last year at the United States Coast Guard station at Salem, Massachusetts. It purports to show four luminous objects in formation and was referred to the Air Force authorities in Washington. No authoritative report on it has been issued so far as is known.
