The Black Vault · 167 pages · text by OCR

This Black Vault release compiles 1964 newspaper and wire service clippings plus a Project Blue Book summary on the Socorro, New Mexico sighting by policeman Lonnie Zamora on April 24, 1964, when an egg-shaped object left four depressions and burned brush. It covers J. Allen Hynek's site visit, APRO and NICAP comment, and related New Mexico reports at La Madera, Edgewood and Albuquerque. The Air Force summary reports that soil and brush analysis found no radiation or propellant, and the case remained open.

1. We have received your request for LEM information. Thank you for your interest in Bell's participation in this program. Bell's participation involves the production of both the LEM Ascent Engine and positive expulsion tanks for the LEM reaction control system. These tanks are patterned after similar tanks we are making for the Apollo Command Module reaction control system.

2. We are unable to honor your request for LEM information at this time. Because of the terms of our subcontracts with Grumman Aircraft, approval must be obtained from Grumman prior to releasing information concerning the subcontracts. A request has been sent to Grumman requesting approval to supply you with information. To date we have not received this approval.

3. If you wish to contact Grumman directly to explain your requirements for information, we suggest that you contact the following:
