1952: WASHINGTON, D.C. AND THE YEAR OF THE UFO, with Dr. Bruce Maccabee. More than fifty years ago during the most amazing flap of sightings in the USA (and the world), the Air Force almost publicly admitted that at least some of the objects seen during sightings of UFO sightings could be objects that were literally "from out of this world." However, when that opportunity arose during a large press conference in late July, 1952, instead of admitting that the Air Force couldn't explain all sightings and that some "high officials" were seriously considering the "interplanetary hypothesis," the Air Force, represented by General John A. Samford, Director of Intelligence, said that everything could be explained as natural phenomena, effectively slamming the lid down on the UFO subject. But what the Air Force said privately was a different matter. This report tells "the rest of the story" of that amazing year. This lecture will show how the events of that year have had an impact on the history of UFO investigation, even continue today.1952: WASHINGTON, D.C. AND THE YEAR OF THE UFO, with Dr. Bruce Maccabee.
