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.

Qiestion of inhabited planets and the plurality of worlds is reviewed in cormec-
tion with th~ astronomical revolution. The idea and the wishful dream connect-
ed throughout the centuries with the conception of other celestia! bodies are ex-
amined: the idea of a flying man, "homo volans, •· and the dream of reaching
othe.r planets, especially the moon.

If modern theories about the formation of stars are correct, vrobably the great
majority of stars have planets around them. On at least some of these, life
may have evolved in a benefir.ent realm of light and liquid water and in an atmo-
sphere of oxygen and nitrogen to a level as high and perhaps much higher, than
the highest life known on earth. Communication with intelligent beings of plan-
ets of other stars would be almost impossible because of the distance involved.
