Miami, Florida - Daily News
Washington, Nov. 23 — There is a new of batch significant “flying saucer” developments. While these mysterious objects haven’t been in the headlines of late, they are still frequently and authoritatively reported throughout the world, and facilities and efforts to fathom them are increasing both in the U.S. and abroad.
Following are important developments that can be published:
The Air Force is preparing another special report on flying objects.
The Navy has established a research agency of its own to study these aerial devices.
Conducting Probes
Six other countries now have official organizations conducting probes of these mysterious objects. They are Canada, Britain, France, Sweden, Norway and Russia.
So far, in the U.S. alone, more than 200 sightings have been reported this year.
The Air Force will again take a “yes-and-no” position in its forthcoming report.
Claims and rumors about space ships from other planets, and secret foreign aircraft will not be confirmed. However, neither will they be wholly rejected. The Air Force's experts will carefully make certain reservations.
They will admit being unable to explain some 15 per cent of the investigated sightings.
More than 3,500 such reports have been received by the Air Force in the past six years.
Most of them, after thorough study, have turned out to be either weather balloons, astronomical and climatic phenomena, birds, light reflections, airplanes, or radar and other electronic disturbances.
Finest Equipment
But 15 per cent of the sightings do not fall into these categories and the experts have no answers for them as yet. They could be this, that or something else.
The Air Force's “flying saucer” research staff includes the best scientists and technicians in the country, assisted by the latest and finest equipment. Newest addition to that is a number of specially-constructed high-speed cameras.
Air Force authorities are still debating whether to publish anything produced by these stations. They are located in strategic sections of the country particularly in the vicinity of atomic plants where sightings are frequently reported. That is one of the most significant facts regarding these mysterious objects.
