The Roswell Report: Fact vs. Fiction in the New Mexico Desert
USAF / The Black Vault · 1995 · 882 pages · text by OCR
The Roswell Report: Fact versus Fiction in the New Mexico Desert was published by Headquarters United States Air Force in 1995. The Black Vault distributes this copy. It reproduces the report by Col. Richard L. Weaver and the synopsis by 1st Lt. James McAndrew, both written after a General Accounting Office inquiry requested by Representative Steven Schiff. The Air Force search found no evidence of an extraterrestrial craft or crew. It concluded that the Roswell debris most likely came from NYU Flight No. 4, a Project MOGUL balloon train.

Flight 17: Released from Alamogordo, New Mexico, 1647 MST, September 9, 1947 Recovered at Croft, Kansas
On this flight the first balloon made of .004" polyethylene was launched. The altitude controls were a fixed-flow needle valve orifice set to leak at 100 grams per hour and an automatic ballast valve activated by a minimum pressure switch.
This flight reached floating level shortly before sunset, and the balloon took on superheat which was lost when the sun went down. This cooling necessitated the rapid discharge of ballast to maintain buoyancy. The operation of the automatic ballast valve at this time was satisfactory and restored the balloon to a floating level within one hour. Following restoration a satisfactory floating performance was indicated for as long as radio contact was maintained (Figure 11). The need for a balloon-borne

barograph was demonstrated by this flight which traveled more than 500 miles from the release point.
