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.

whereby the problem posed by the reports from all over the world, but expe-
cially in the U.S. , from people of high credibility, can be adequately stedied,
using all methods available to modern science; and (2) that the U.S. seek the

free interchange among nations of information about unidentified flying objects.
