CIA UFO Documents

Summary

In 1959, a CIA officer wrote a letter to Dr. Page, acknowledging the volume of correspondence about UFO sightings. The officer expressed admiration for the doctor's methodical approach to his research, highlighting the importance of maintaining a scientific perspective on such a complex topic. The letter reflected the CIA's frustration with the increasing number of reports and the need to filter relevant information from rumors and theories.

Despite the information overload, the officer recognized that Dr. Page's work was a model to follow. The letter also suggested a certain desperation regarding the volume of material received, indicating that the CIA was seeking more efficient ways to handle the flood of data. This document, although partially illegible due to OCR errors, offers a unique insight into the official interest in UFOs during the 1950s.
