2019 Reprint of 1956 Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition, not reproduced with Optical Recognition software. This was the first serious book about UFOs to be written by anyone actively connected with the official investigation of these phenomena. As chief of the Air Force project assigned to the investigation and analysis of UFOs, Mr. Ruppelt and his staff studied over 4500 reports and discussed them with everyone from out and out crackpots to top level scientists and generals. Here are the complete official accounts of the classic cases--the Lubbock Lights, the Utah Movies, the Florida Scoutmaster, the Washington Sightings-as well as a wealth of less-publicized but equally amazing incidents.
Edward J. Ruppelt (1923 - 1960) was a United States Air Force officer probably best known for his involvement in Project Blue Book, a formal governmental study of unidentified flying objects. He is generally credited with coining the term "unidentified flying object", to replace the terms "flying saucer" and "flying disk" - which had become widely known - because the military thought them to be "misleading when applied to objects of every conceivable shape and performance. For this reason the military prefers the more general, if less colorful, name: unidentified flying objects. Ruppelt was the director of Project Grudge from late 1951 until it became Project Blue Book in March 1952; he remained with Blue Book until late 1953. UFO researcher Jerome Clark writes, "Most observers of Blue Book agree that the Ruppelt years comprised the project's golden age, when investigations were most capably directed and conducted. Ruppelt himself was open-minded about UFOs and his investigators were not known, as Grudge's were, for force-fitting explanations on cases."
