Government Attic · 419 pages · text from the file's own layer

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 re-states the G-field theory proposed in his book, Space, Gravity, and
the Flying Saucer (London, T. Werner Laurie, 1954). He contends that recent
re·v>rted behavior of UFOs during sightings conforms to that rredicted by his

Briefly appraises current developments in and state-of-the-art of aero-

dence of contra-gravitatitJnal theory of UFO propulsion in authenticated UFO

Postulating that UFOs are intelligently controlled extraterrestrial spacecraft,
author introduces theory ar.d :mpporting arguments that they are propelled by
a controlled gravitatioeal field.
Edwards, Frank. Frank Edwards' report. Fate, v. 10, Aug. 1957: 51-57.
Cites claimed discovery in 1926 by Dr. Charles F. BJsh that lintz basalt defies
laws of gravity by not accelerating in free fall. Claims that in April 1957 five
major aeronautical companies were engaged in anti-gravity research projects.
Alleges that the U.S. Air Force has a multi-million dollar plant equipr cid for
investigation of anti-gravity and counter-gravitational forces. Suggests that
research activity relates to determining propulsion mode of UFOs.

Evaluation of current theories that attempt to explain UFO propulsion.

Arguments are presented to support "plasma jet" theory of UFO propulsion.

Stating that DOD will shortly confirm that flying saucers are "space ships, "
art~cle speculates that the power units in UFOs must involve one of the follow-
ing: nuclear fission, mass conversion of energy, cosmic rays, or the electro-
m':l.gnetic forces existent everywhere.
