The Roswell Report: Fact versus Fiction in the New Mexico Desert was published in 1995 by Headquarters United States Air Force. It was written in response to Representative Steven H. Schiff's request and a General Accounting Office audit, and it contains Col. Richard L. Weaver's report and 1st Lt. James McAndrew's synopsis, along with attachments, appendices and photographs. The report says researchers found no evidence of an extraterrestrial craft or crew. It concludes that the 1947 debris came from a Project MOGUL balloon train.

FOREWORD
This report represents a joint effort by Col. Richard L. Weaver and 1st Lt. James
McAndrew to address the request made by Representative Steven H. Schiff (R-NM) for
information regarding an alleged crash of an unidentified flying object (UFO) that
occurred in the state in 1947. This publication duplicates the information provided to the
Secretary of the Air Force and to the General Accounting Office (GAO). It was written
as a result of Colonel Weaver's and Lieutenant McAndrew's efforts to locate the records
that explain the events of July 1947 leading to what is popularly known as the Roswell
Incident. The only information presented here that was not in the report delivered to the
Secretary of the Air Force and the GAO is the photograph section. It appears after
Colonel Weaver's final attachment, at the very end of this book.
The importance of attachment 32, Lieutenant McAndrew's synopsis, derives from his
description of Project MOGUL, the top-priority classified project of balloon-borne
experiments, which provides the explanation for the "Roswell Incident." Interest abounds
surrounding the UFO wave of 1947 which began in the spring and did not dissipate until
fall. Interest in UFOs climaxed during the summer, when multiple sightings of such
·objects occurred.
