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.

v. 29, 1967: 1095-1101.
Results are presented of extensive survey of reported ball lightning otiaervations
during the last 300 years. A statistical description of the phenomenon was
obtained in terms of its properties and characteristics. The description is
discussed and various relationships between the properties and characteristics
of the phenomenon are established. In addition, several properties previously
attributed to ball lightning are shown to be erroneous.
