This is Government Attic's posting of a 1969 Library of Congress annotated bibliography, UFOs and Related Subjects, compiled by Lynn E. Catoe for the Air Force Office of Scientific Research. The Defense Technical Information Center released it under FOIA in November 2014. The bibliography lists more than 1,600 items and was requested to support the University of Colorado UFO study led by Edward U. Condon. Its preface concludes that no simple, single explanation of the UFO phenomenon applies to all cases.

Author analyzes and correlates many paranormal Jitenomena of scientm.c record and theori?.es that objects such as stones, ice, water, colored :rain, orgaric matte1·, living organisms, and vegetable matter that have lall•,;i to earth from the heavet;.s come from intelli~ently operated extra- te:-1.P.stl'ial sincecraft or are in sorne way formed, guided, or influenced by the cpe~tors of such spacecraft. ----- The expanding case for the TJFO. New York, Citadel Press, 1957, 253 p. In this sequel to The C~se for the UFO! the author further develops the theory that paranormal phenomena, when collated and analyzed, support belier in the existence of intelligence functioning in space, He suggests that UFOs may be a sentient animal life form that originated on earth aeons ago but which now lives natu.t-a.lly in open space.

Evidence is presented in support of theory tha.t high-level UFOs could be created by electric discharge between clouds n1• between invisible layers o! charged dnst/j_ce iarticles. Ol'casional daylight sightings of wh:i.t have been reported as well-structured or silhouetted objects are explainable as plasmas that give the illusion of metal structure, posEible due to whirling charged dust or ice Jll'l'ticles. Conclusions based on analys~s of l'eports collected by National Investigations Committee on Aerial Phenomena. ----- Plasma theory may explain many UFOs. Aviation week & since technology, v. 85, Aug, 22, 1966: 48-50, 55-56, 60-61. Theory is advanced that many low-altitude UFOs are a form of ball lightning (plasma), also called kugelblitz, that is generated by lightning or by corcna discharge alm:g high-voltage power lines under appropriate conditions. Idea was prompted by nu1n(:Lrous U1"0 sightings on or near high-teno;;ion lines, especially at Exeter, N. H., during 1965, and the <;imilarity of their charac- teristics to those reported for some k•_1gelblitz sightings. 117
