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.

includes rate of ballast expenditure, diffusion, leakage, and stability of control. By-product information of importance to meteorology or balloon flying techniques includes the following: Observation, measurement and theoretical analysis of high altitude atmospheric oscillations has been accomplished. These oscillations are several milibars in amplitude (as indicated on balloon baragraph traces) and the period of oscillation varies between 4 and 10 minutes. Air mass trajectories have been measured over ranges up to about 400 miles and have been indicated by the recovery of gear up to 2,000 miles from the launching point. Additional field tests on air mass trajectories are now being made. ## Complementary Contracts: a. New York University No. W28-099-ac-241 "Development of Constant Level Balloon" b. Melpar, Inc.
