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 observes that scientists who believe there is intelligent life on other
planets are divided on the question of how to go about getting in touch. He
presents the plans of the different factions for receiving or initiating communi-
cation.

Postulatinf! that there are intelligent beings throughout the universe, the
author speculates on the kind of technological development necessary to
enable us to detect their presence within our atmosphere and in their own
communities and to establish communication with them,

Author suggests that space probes from extra-galactic civilizations may
already be within earth's atmosphere. He points out that this type of attempt
at communication may be more feasible than radio signals sent over inter-
stellar distances since it eliminates the need for ingenuity in selecting a
star and correct wavelength and can give a more powerful signal than a
home-based transmitter.
