Dear Senator Kennedy:
DEPARTMENT 01' THE AIR FORC£
W ...... ' .. OTON
We refer to your recent letter 1n behalr of Wayne I.
Philipson , regard1ng unidentified flying objects (UFOs).
The 1nveatigation of UFOs reported 1n the skies over
the United States 19 the responsibility of the All' Force,
Attached for your convenience 15 a current report on this
project , which has been designated "Bl ue Book."
In 18 years of investigating over 10, 000 reports of
UFOs, the eVidence has proved beyond reasonable doubt
that all reported aer1al phenomena have been object!! either
created and sent aloft by man, generated by atmospheric
condit1ons, or cauaed by celeat1al bodles or the
residue of meteoric activity.
There has never been any evidence that UFOs reported
to the Air Foree represented ext!"aterreatrlal vehicles.
No such object reported to the Air Force has given any
indicatIon of a threat to the Uhited States nor has any
UFO exhibited characteristics beyond the BCOpe of ourrent
technical or scientifI0 knowledge.
The Air Force w111 oontinue to investigate all reports
of unusual aerial phenomena over the United States, and
evaluations and conclUSions reached w111 be released to
the publ1c.
We welcome the opportunity to again be of serVice to
yOU.
