FOR RELEASE: 21 April 1967
AIR FORCE MISSILE DEVELOPMENT CENTER, Hollomon Air Force Bose, New Mexico---
The unidentified flying object reported to Hollomon Air Force Bose, N.M., on March
2, most likely was caused by an accidental radar chaff drop from an aircraft. The base
had aircraft returning from a training chaff drop mission in the vicinit}' of the sighting
at the same time.
Officers assigned to investigate the report said their conclusions were based on
reported movement patterns of the unidentified flying object and supporting data from
surveillance radars.
The chaff consists of IQng, narrow metallic strips dropped from aircraft to confuse
ground radars attempting to pinpoint an aircraft as a target.
The chaff had a falling and wind movement pattern and moved similar to the direction
and velocity reported for the unidentified flying object.
In addition, the chaff was observed on surveillanca radars at White Sands Missile R.::mge
in the some area ot the some time os the unidentified flying object si&hting.

PROJECT
BLUE BOOK
1 FEBRUARY 1966 PROJECT BLUE BOOK
The United states Ai:r Force has the responsibility under t.lle Department of Defense for the investigation of unidentified flying objects (UFDs). The name of this program, which has been in operation since 1948, is Project Blue Book. It has been identified in the past as Project Sign and Project Grudge.
Air Force interest in unidentified flying objects is related directly to the Air Force responsi bility for the air defense of the United States. Procedures for conducting this program are estab lished by Air Force Regulation 200-2.
The objectives of Project Blue Book are two-fold: first, to determine whether UF-0s pose a threat to the sect HOW THE PROGRA..""vl IS CONDUCTED The program is conducted in three phases. The first phase includes receipt of UFO reports and initial investigation of the reports. The Ai.r Force base nearest the location of a reported sight ing is charged with the responsibility of investigating the sighting and forwarding the information to the Project Blue Book Office at Wri~;ht-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio. If the initial investigation does not reveal a positive identification or eXplanation, a second phase of more intensive analysis is conducted by the Project Blue Book Office. Each case is objec tively and scientifically analyzed, and, if necessary, all of the scientific facilities available to the Air Force can be used to assist in arriving at an identification or eXplanation. All personnel asso ciated with the investigation, analysis, and evaluation efforts of the project view each report with a scientific approach and an open mind. The third phase of the program is dissemination of information concerning UFO sightings, evaluations, and statistics. This is accomplished by the Secretary of the Air Force, Office of In formation. The Air Force defines an unidentified flying object as any aerial object which the observer is unable to identify. Reports of unfamiliar objects in the sky are submitted to the Air Force from many sources. These sources include military and civilian pilots, weather observers, amateur astronomers, business and professional men and women, and housewives, etc. Frequently such objects as missiles, balloons, birds, kites, searchlights, aircraft navigation and anticollision beacons, jet engine exhaust, condensation trails, astronomical bodies and meteor ological phenomena are mistakenly reported as unidentified flying objects. The Air Force groups its evaluations of UFO reports under three general headings: (1) identified, (2) insufficient data, and (3) unidentified. 1 Identified reports are those for wh.~,l sufficient specific information has been accumulated and evaluated to permit a positive identification or explanation of the object. Reports categorized as Insufficient Data are those for which one or more elements of informa tion essential for evaluation are missing. Some examples are the omission of the duration of the sighting, date, time, location, position in the sky, weather conditions, and the manner of appearance or disappearance. If an element is missing and there is an indication that the sighting may be of a security, scientific, technical, or public interest value, the Project Blue Book Office conducts an additional investigation and every attempt is made to obtain the information necessary for identifi cation. However, in some instances, essential information cannot be obtained, and no further action can be taken. The third and by far the smallest group of evaluations is categorized as Unidentified. A sight ing is c.onsidered unidentified when a report apparently contains all pertinent data necessary to suggest a valid hypothesis concerning the cause or explanation of the report but the description of the object or its motion cannot be correlated with any known object or phenomena. TYPES OF UFO IDENTIFICATIONS AND EVALUATIONS There are various types of UFO sightings. Most common are reports of astronomical sightings, which include bright stars, plansts, comets, fireballs, meteors, auroral streamers, and other celes tial bodies. When observed through haze, light fog, moving clouds, or other obscurations or unusual conditions, the planets, including Venus, Jupiter, and Mars have been reported a.s unidentified flying objects. Stellar mirages are aleo a source of reports. Satellites are another major source of UFO reports. An increase in satellites reported as UFOs has come about because of two factors. The first is the increase of interest on the part of the public; the second is the increasing numberofsatellitesin the skies. Positive knowledge of the location of all satellites at all times enables rapid identificaLon of satellite sightings. Keeping track of man-made objects in orbit about the earth is the responsibility of the North American Air Defense Command Space Detection and Tracking System. This sophisticated electronic system gathers complex space traffic data instantly from tracking stations all over the world. Other space surveillance activities include the use of ballistic tracking and large telescopic cam eras. ECHO schedules are prepared by the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center at Greenbelt, Maryland, and schedules of the South/North equator crossings ar€ prepared by the Smithsonian Institution at Cambridge, Massachusetts. From the data produced byth.eseagencies, satellites mistakenly reported as UFOs can be quickly identified. Some of these are visible to the naked eye. Aircraft account for another major source of UFO reports, particularly during adverse weather conditious. When observed at highaltitudesandatsome distance, aircraft can have appearances rang ing fro~n disc to rocket shapes due to the reflection of the sun on their bright surfaces. Vapor or con densation trails from jet aircraft will sometimes appear to glow fiery red or orange when reflecting sunlight. Afterburners from jet aircraft are often reported as UFOs since they can be seen from great distances when the aircraft cannot be seen. The Project Blue Book Office has direct contact with all elements of the Air Force and the Fed eral Aviation Agency civil air control centers. All aerial refueling operations and special training flights can be checked immediately. Air traffic of commercial airlines and flights of military aircraft are checked with the nearest control center, enabling an immediate evaluation of aircraft mistakenly reported as UFOs. However, since manylocalfiights are not carried, these flights are probable causes of some reports. z Balloons continue to be reported as UFOs. Several thousand balloons are released each day from military and civilian airports, weather stations, and research activities. There are several types of balloons - weather balloons, rawinsondes, radiosondes, and the large research balloons which have diameters up to 300 feet. At night, balloons carry ruru1ing lights which cause an unusual appearance when observed. Reflection of the sun on balloons at dawn and sunset sometimes produce strange ef fects. This usually occurs when theballoon,becauseof its altitudes, is exposed to the sun. Large bal ioons can move at speeds of over 100 miles per hour when moving in high altitude jet windstreams. These balloons sometimes appear to be flattened on top. At other times, they appear to be saucer shaped and to have lights mounted inside the bag itself due to the sun's rays reflecting through the material of the balloon. The Ba'' on Control Center at Holloman Air Force Base, New Mexico, main tains a plot on all Military Upper Air Research Balloons. Another category of UFO evaluations labeled Other includes missiles, reflections, mirages, searchlights, birds, kites, spurious radar indications, hoaxes, fireworks, and flares. Aircraft, satellites, balloons, and the like should NOT be reported since they do not fall within the definition of an unidentified flyi.1g object. CONCLUSIONS To date, the firm conclusions of Project Blue Book are: (1) no unidentified flying object reported, investigated, and evaluated bv the Air Force has ever given any indication of threat to our national security; (2) there has been no evidence submitted to or discovered by the Air Force that sightings categorized as unidentified represent technological developments or principles beyond the range of present day scientific knowledge; and (3) there has been no evidence indicating that sightings categor ized as unidentified are extraterrestrial vehicles. The Air Force will continue to investigate all reports of unusual aerial phenomena over the United States. The services of qualified scientists and technicians will continue to be used to investigate and analyze these reports, and periodic reports on the subject will be made. The Air Force does not deny the possibility that some form of life ma~' exist on other planets in the universe. However, to date, the Air Forc,has neither received nor discovered any evidence which proves the existence and intra-space mob'.Iity ot extraterrestrial life. The Air Force continues to ex tend an open invitation to anyone who feels that he possesses any evidence of extraterrestrial vehi~les •)pero.ting within the earth's near space envelope io submit his evidence fiJr analysis. Initial contact for this purpose is through the :· ,Hawing address: PROJECT BLUE BOOK INFORMATION OFFICE SAFOI WASHINGTON, D C 20330 Anyone observing what he considers to be an unidentified flying object should report it to the nearest Air Force Base. Persons submitting a UFO report to the Air Force are free to dlscuss any aspect of the report with anyone, The Air Force does not seek to limit discussion on such reports and does not withhold or censor any information pertaining to this unclassified program. 4 The following items are for internal use only and are not available for distribution to the public. These concern Lllternal management and procedures for forwarding UFO reports to the appropriate agency: 1. Air Force Regulation 200-2 2. JANAP 146 The Air Force has no films, photographs, maps, charts, or graphs of un identified flying objects. Photographs that have been submitted for evaluation in conjunction with UFO reports have- i:>een determined to be a misinterpreta tion of natural or conventional obje,~ts. These objects have a positive identifi cation. The Air Force no longer possesses, and thus d9es not have for distribu tion, outdated reports on Project Sign.

She informed me that she had written a letter to Air Force Headquarters, ATTN: Office of Public Inform;;,.Lion, and read the contents of the letter to me. She stated that some news items referencbg her lette:.- had been printed in the 1-.)ca.\ papers. I was Wlaware Gf this incident. I had not noticed it in the papers, and I did not know that she had sent this letter to Air Force Headquarters. She asked for a copy of the Air Force Regulation 200-2 which governs our actions in relation to UFO reports, and 1 put her off by saying that I did not have an extra copy available now but I would see if I could dig one up. I con·~acted our Public Information Office and made sure that it was all right to go ahead and give her a copy of Air_~-t.!;e -R:~Ela'U91.L2.0.0...2. They said yes so I have given them (P. I. 0.) a copy to give to her. JACK H. PATTERSON Captain, USAF Aircraft Allocations Branch -, . • t 5 .~ l MDG MDGD MDGC MDGR MDA MOB Moe ....,.,; ·-1!7 or the Ur Force (SAFOt! 1.11> 25, .o.c.
