"I am 90 per cent sure that many of the thousands of unidentified flying objects, or UFOs, recorded since the 1940s, belong to visitors from other planets."-Edgar D. Mitchell, Apollo 14 astronaut and moonwalker (1998)Flying Saucers, UFOs or UAP is a compilation of two historical reports: The Durant Report of the Robertson Panel Proceedings (1953) by the CIA and Preliminary Assessment: Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (2021) a long-anticipated report by the Director of National Intelligence.While these reports offer the official US government's explanation of UFOs during two different time periods-almost seventy years apart, they are strikingly similar in their conclusions, which are almost interchangeable.What is evident in the evolution of the terminology used over time-flying saucer, unidentified flying objects (UFO), unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP)-is that those who report on this topic continue to broaden their view on this area of study. However, the lack of groundbreaking discoveries in these reports continues to raise the question of what is not being reported.Students of national security, journalists and anyone interested in UFOs, will find this publication fascinating reading.
