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 states that throughout its investigation of UFO phenomena, USAF has
withheld information, photographs, and other evidence it has amassed. He
suggests that full text of Project Blue Book Special Report No. 14 (analysis
of reports of unidentified aerial objects)--an offset copy dated May 5, 1955 is
in the appendix--probably was not mude readily available to the public because
in 20% to 30% of cases in main study, origin of objects sighted was declared
unknown. He also points out that the report did not discuss whether or not
there was evidence to prove or disprove the theory that U!<'Os might be extra-
terrestrial objects or devices. First and second editions published by author
