Unidentified Flying Objects Reports

Defense Intelligence Agency · 140 pages · text by OCR

This Defense Intelligence Agency release gathers Army and Air Force intelligence reports on unidentified flying objects from several countries. It contains translated Finnish Border Guard reports of glowing spheres and lights seen near the Soviet border, a Costa Rica sighting near Puntarenas, and Afghan news items from 1959 on bright objects over Kandahar, Mazar-i-Sharif and Kabul. Other reports describe objects over Kuldja in Sinkiang, China. A 1969 OSI report from Nakhon Phanom, Thailand concludes that a pilot's ground sighting was probably a religious procession carrying ceremonial drums.

que rechaza frente a la historia ser el hombre que aceptó descartar un hecho científico nuevo, y afirma que el problema de los OVNI es de gran importancia, y que ha llegado a dicha conclusión luego de 16 años de estudios. Quintanilla y Hynek se enfrentan abiertamente delante de los senadores, y finalmente los delegados de la Fuerza Aérea terminan admitiendo que con el objeto de tranquilizar a la opinión se podrá crear una comisión civil: Los diarios anuncian que Brown propondrá al presidente Johnson dicha solución. Es la primera derrota de la Fuerza Aérea en ese dominio desde diciembre de 1947. Pasa el

verano de 1966 y los que siguen la cuestión preguntan por qué, si el presidente quiere crear una comisión civil, no es Hynek, experto mundial competente en la materia y conocedor a fondo de todos los archivos secretos de la Fuerza Aérea, el encargado de organizarla. Cuando Hynek declaró ante el Congreso que el trabajo de la Fuerza Aérea no era serlo, el secretario de Estado, Harold Brown, molesto, le replicó que todo científico deseoso de controlar lo realizado podría hacerlo libremente presentándose en las oficinas en Dayton. Pensó que nadie aceptaría ese desafío. Fue un gran error: semanas más tarde el cien-

tifico James Mac Donald, del Instituto de Fisica Atmosférica de la Universidad de Arizona, se presentaba en la ciudad de Dayton.

"Los OVNI no existen".

Ninguna disposición habla sido prevista para hacer desaparecer los archivos comprometedores y Mac Donald estudió todo, detalladamente. Descubrió que el famoso Jury Robertson de 1953, presentado como compuesto por sabios, no habla sido en realidad más que un instrumento de la CIA, reunido a su pedido y dirigido por ella.
