1.The Project Blue Book was tasked with a significant responsibility.

According to UFO researcher Alejandro Rojas, who spoke with the BBC, the ambitious effort may be dated back to the month of June in 1947.

According to the editor of Open Minds magazine, a well-respected businessman and pilot named Kenneth Arnold was flying over Washington state when he spotted three mysterious flying objects. Arnold was traveling at an altitude of 35,000 feet.

Eventually on, Arnold characterized the objects as “skipping like saucers,” a description that was later taken by the media and referred to as “flying saucers.”

This high-profile occurrence, along with numerous others, such as a rumored UFO landing at Roswell, New Mexico, in the same year, led to the establishment of an investigative committee by the Air Force.

According to rumors, there were just a few people working on the program known as Project Blue Book, which had its administrative offices located at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Ohio.

Nevertheless, during the course of twenty years, the organization analyzed 12,618 reports of UFO encounters.

Project Blue Book was established in the years immediately following World War Two with the intention of halting the rise of public disquiet over the rising number of reported UFO sightings, including sightings recorded over notable locations such as the White House and the United States Capitol.

According to Greenewald, “there was a lot of frenzy with the people, and to the military and administration at the time, that in and of itself was a tremendous threat.” “It didn’t matter if the UFOs were alien or not; they were generating a panic, and [the government] had to ease everybody’s anxieties in order to keep the peace.”

UFO sightings are believed to have been debated at the highest levels of government in the 1940s and 1950s, despite the fact that such claims are routinely laughed at in today’s society.

According to Rojas, “It was taken extremely seriously back then,” and he cites the heads of the Central Intelligence Agency as making public statements that it was a genuine occurrence. Even Congressman Gerald Ford, who was serving at the time, issued a warning that it should be probed.

In 1966, the United States Air Force established a second committee with the mission of conducting additional research into some aspects of the Project Blue Book files. After some time, that organization came out with a report stating that they had found no proof of any UFO activity.

1969 was the year that marked the end of Project Blue Book as it was known.

3. A good number of the Project Blue Book cases seem to have clear-cut conclusions.

The majority of the UFO sightings that were investigated by Project Blue Book were determined to have been caused by weather balloons, swamp gases, meteorological events, or even temperature inversions. This is despite the fact that numerous credible sources, including Navy admirals and military and civilian pilots, reported seeing UFOs.

In April of 1956, a witness in Seattle, Washington, provided their account of witnessing a “A white ball that is approximately one-half the size of the moon… [and] traveling in circles and circles “, as shown by the records.

After further investigation, detectives came to the conclusion that it was a meteor and then closed the case.

A witness near Newark, New Jersey, in January 1961 described seeing a dark grey object that was “roughly the size of a jet with no wings.”

It was eventually determined that the item in question was a jet aircraft traveling across the region.

4. The explanations for certain Project Blue Book situations aren’t always straightforward.

According to Greenewald and Rojas, the investigators who worked on the Project Blue Book were unable to satisfactorily explain almost seven hundred of the entries in the book. In a great number of these situations, inadequate data or proof was presented.

However, even some of the instances that have been solved still leave researchers with more questions than answers.

In one instance like this, a police officer in Socorro, New Mexico, in 1964, spotted an unusual aircraft flying overhead and decided to call off the chase of a suspect who was being pursued by vehicle.

The officer followed the ship, which he described as having a peculiar red symbol on it, until it landed, at which point he witnessed two creatures about the size of children depart the vehicle.

After some time, it went off, but not before leaving behind scorch scars and other traces of evidence on the ground.

According to Greenewald, “[Project] Blue Book classified it as unexplained; even after all these decades, they still are unable to explain it.”

5. There is information that has not yet been discovered on the activity of UFOs.

Greenwald has accumulated a large number of government papers, but he claims that there are still a significant number of them that neither he nor the general public have access to.

According to him, one request to the National Security Agency resulted in the production of hundreds of pages, but the information on each page was so heavily blacked that just a few words were legible.

According to Greenewald, other departments and agencies of the United States government, including as the Central Intelligence Agency and the Defense Intelligence Agency, have also conducted UFO studies, but their findings have not been made public.

He says, “I think Project Bluebook… is only the tip of the iceberg,” and adds that he will continue to request additional information from the government of the United States.

Greenewald arrives at the following conclusion: “There are secrets after conspiracies after scandals that continue to come out.” “There’s always something to chase after,” as the saying goes.
