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.

Basic BooKs, 1959. p. 170-180.
Presents currently-Known information on atmosphere, surface, and sub-
surface of the moon. Chapter 16 postulates existence of underground water

Fou(!re, Ren~. Adamski's last cnar,ce. Flying saucer review, v. 10, Sept. -
Oct. 1964: 27-29.
Article suggests that the description in Adamski's booi<, Inside tne Spacesnips,
of snow, mountains, lakes, and rivers on the hidden side of the moon co:ild be
possible if intelligent beings there had created a gigantic dome of energy in
which an atmosphere chemically created by tnem would remain captive and
within v.hicil these weather pnenomena C<Juld be made to occur. He says
that the .Adamski claim is iudefensible and absurd otherwise.

Features of the lunar surface are discussed which would seem to indicate
former presence of a hydrosphere and atmosphere with essentially complete
internal consistency. Since these were tne conditions that must have aeld at
the inception of terrestrial life, it can be assumed that tnere was a pristi:e
lunar life.
