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.

Part I deals with question of whether life is designed or is a chance occur-
rence. Part ll is conce.::ned with ways and means by which life coult:I be
r~uiJed by an outside agency. Part m considers the future of the human
race.

Conception of Svante Arrhenius that life can be carried from one planet
to another: Germs swept away by ascending air currents which carry them
to the limits d the atmosphere are repelled by the electrically charged dust
that has penetrated there, coming from suns that have driven it away by the
repelling pressure of their radiation. After they have arrived in space they
attach themselves to some straying grains of dust of greater dimensions than
theirs that are consequently capable of obeying the attraction of a neighboring
planet rather than the repelling force of radiation; they then penetrate into
the atmosphere of this new planet and bring life to it, if life has not yet
developed there.

Hypothesis for or!gin of life on earth is given based on three assumptions:
(1) intelligent life existed somewhere in lhe universe prior to the beginning
c,f life on earth; (2) interplanetary flight is possible by these intelligences;
