Verbatim from the file
“The current series of sightings and landings, I understand, will increase. They are not going to go away, as some members of our government would like.”. “This is one of the primary reasons why the extra-terrestrials started making visitations in 1947, shortly after we developed this ability — to watch over us and if possible to impart their advanced scientific, technological and sociologicat knowledge to help us resolve these problems before we destroy ourselves.””. “They hope to eliminate the have-not nations … through superior financing. They have an advanced economic system they call Universal Economics.”
Status of the case
The page-level assessment recorded in the file is: no agency assessment. All records released under the PURSUE program are designated unresolved by the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office unless otherwise stated, meaning the federal government has not concluded the events were anomalous, has not concluded they were conventional, and has not ruled out either possibility. Conventional candidates for sightings of this period include experimental aircraft, weather balloons (especially the Project Mogul series), atmospheric optical phenomena, and astronomical objects.
