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.

Report no. 242) '"J'he implications of a discovery of extraterrestrial life,'' p. 2Hi-216, warns that t.l1e discovery of intelUgent life in the universe could have profcund con- sequences for earth atti~udes and values. It is pointed out that many societies have disintegrated when they had to associate with previously unfamiliar soci- eties espousing different ideas and different ways of life; others that survived such an exr>erience usually did so by paying the price of changes in values and attitudes, and behavior. Continuing studies are recommended to determine emotional and intellectual understanding, and attuudes - - and successive alter- rations of them if any -- regarding the possibility and consequences of discover- ing intelligent extraterrestrial life.
