Hmmm. 'release papers' vs. 'search its archives' is a stretch...

Journalist Wins: NASA To Release Papers on Baffling '65 UFO Incident


Published: October 27, 2007 10:30 AM ET

WASHINGTON NASA has agreed to search its archives once again for documents on a 1965 UFO incident in Pennsylvania, a step the space agency fought in federal court.

The government has refused to open its files about what, if anything, moved across the sky and crashed in the woods near Kecksburg, Pa., 40 miles southeast of Pittsburgh.

Traffic was tied up in the area as curiosity seekers drove to the area, only to be kept away from the crash site by soldiers.

The Air Force's explanation for the unidentified flying object: a meteor or meteors.

"They could not find anything," one Air Force memo stated after a late-night search on Dec. 9, 1965. Several NASA employees also were reported to have been at the scene.

Eyewitnesses said a flatbed truck drove away a large object shaped like an acorn and about the size of a Volkswagen bus. A mock-up based on the descriptions of local residents sits behind the Kecksburg Volunteer Fire Department.

4. The problem with the government denying it is....

there were too many people who saw it. They tried at first to say it was a metor. But metor's don't change course. This thing did. I am not saying it was an alien space ship. But according to eye witnesses this thing acted differently.

I believe that the incident was about a military mistake, a missile of some type launched in error, considering the problem
with "loose" nukes lately it would be good for the truth about this to come out.
