l. Reference the attached letter from Steff Millard requesting
information on unidentified flying objects. ‘The following
information is provided to assist you in answering his letter.

2. There have been no reports of Venusian'’s living in the Pentagon
nor people living under the surface of the moon. We do not deny
the possibility that there may be life on other planets. We simply
state that to date the Air Force has no evidence to substantiate
this fact and we have no evidence of intelligent beings from other
planets visiting our atmosphere in space ships.

3. The summary of the Washington DC sighting of 1952 and the

summary of the Mantell case should answer the remainder of Mr
Millard's questions.

k, We are attaching an FTD Form 164 for his use.

Dear Mra.

This is in reply to your recent letter in
further reference to unidentified Tlying objects.

While the Air Force does not deny that there
may be life existing on other planets, there has
never been a shred of evidence that would lead any-
, one to seriously belleve that these beings have
visited the earth in spaceships. On the contrary,
all the investigations made during the past 15 years
have tended to strengthen the conviction that unil-
dentified flying objects are merely natural phenomena
such as meteors or ball lishtning, or misinterpretation |
of some conventional oovject such as an aircraft, balloon |
or perhaps even bird.

‘In the case of Captain Mantell, at the time he was |
dispatched to investigate a UFO, it was not known that |
&@ weather balloon was in the area. When the report |
of his sighting was checked out, investigation re-
vealed that the Navy had released such a balloon under. |
a then classified project, and therefore its release |
was known only to those persons actually working on |
the project.

The Air Force conclusion of the Washington D.C.
sizhtings were that they were due to mirage effects
created by a double inversion.

Sincerely,
