Government Attic · 419 pages · text from the file's own layer

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.

Ruppelt. Flying saucers, Dec. 1958: 35-42, 56.

----- How to select significant UFO reports. Flying saucer review, v. 11, Sept. -
Oct. 1965: 15-18.
Auther believes that the scientific way to process UFO data is to divide the prob-
lem into two parts: (1) consider all the reports from all available sources, try-
ing to explain them in terms of conventional objects; (2) when all identified cases
have been eliminated, the residue must contain reference to the UFO phenome-
non if it exists as an unconventional, objective agent in the generation of reports.

An objective review of major hypotheses on origin of UFOs leads author to con-
clude that (1) all sightings cannot be attributed to conventional causes; (2) ex-
istence of alien i'ltelligence must be considered; (3) extreme caution must be
used in developing latter hypothesis because of phenomenon's complexity. Ex-
