This file, held under a National Aeronautics and Space Administration title, contains an English translation of the 1999 COMETA report "UFOs and Defense: What Should We Prepare For?", produced by a French association of former IHEDN auditors and first published in a special issue of VSD. It opens with a 2001 letter from Carol Rosin arranging a meeting. The report covers pilot testimonies, close encounters in France, GEPAN/SEPRA research and defense implications. Attached material includes a Leslie Kean article, a NARCAP description and a news item about a UFO at Barnaul airport.

National Aviation Reporting Center for Anomalous Phenomena (NARCAP) The National Aviation Reporting Center for Anomalous Phenomena (NARCAP) is a national organization, established in November of 2000, and is dedicated to the advancement of aviation safety issues as they apply to Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP). NARCAP investigates aviation related reports ofaerial encounters with lights or objects that seem inconsistent with known categories ofaircraft and common natural phenomena. These lights or objects are repo1ted to appear in a variety of colors and shapes. Pilots, air traffic controllers and radar operators repo11 that these lights or objects closely approach aircraft. Encounters with these lights or objects, UAP, have a demonstrated a variety of safety related effects on pilots, crew, cockpit discipline and on-board instrumentation. NARCAP Chief Scientist Dr. Richard F. Haines has compiled a catalogue ofover 3400 aviation related UAP cases. He has conducted a comprehensive review of UAP reports by U.S. air traffic controllers and pilots from the past 50 years. A result of this effo11 is Richard's paper" Aviation Safety in America- A Previously Neglected Factor" . It contains analyses ofover one hw1dred reports of UAP involved in near misses, close pacing, disrupted avionics, and collisions. These events were repo1ted by US military aviators, civil aviation professionals, private pilots, and by foreign aircrews operating in US airspace. NARCAP has no basis for conjecture regarding the true nature or source of these lights and objects. It is the NARCAP position that certain w1identified aerial phenomena have an effect on aviation safety that can be quantified. It is the intention of this organization to develop a body ofdata that will stand up to scientific scrutiny and serve as a basis for understanding this phenomenon. It is our hope that aviation professionals will recognize the impottance of this work and contact NARCAP with their repo11s ofencounters with UAP. Often, though not always, repo11ers are concerned about their confidentiality. We are not associated with the FAA or other government agencies, or the airlines. With regards to employers, the FAA, and the media, we have a process in place to ensure that confidentiality is protected.
