Description: Aliens in the Skies:The New UFO Battle of the ScientistsMYSTERIOUS LIGHTS OVER PHOENIXBy John G. Fuller Hardcover: 219 Pages — Publisher: G. P. Putnam's Sons; Book Club (BCE/BOMC) Edition (1969)Are UFOs fantasy... or hard fact? The government-sponsored Condon Committee's report was supposed to settle the "Flying saucer" question for good. UFO reports were based on stars, weather balloons, planes, hallucinations, and fraud. But - What were the shining objects the Gemini astronauts saw? What makes cars stop when "saucers" approach? What kind of "hallucination" shows up visually and on radar? What about the hundreds of UFO sightings by astronomers, pilots, policemen, and other trained observers? The House Committee on Science and Astronautics invited six prominent scientists - representing astronomy, physics, meteorology, psychology, and engineering - to testify before a special UFO hearing of July 29, 1968. and their unanimous conclusion was that there are Unidentified Flying Objects in Earth's skies - now. As one witness, Dr. Allen Hyneck - once quoted as dismissing UFO reports as "swamp gas" - put it, "Can we afford not to look toward the UFO skies?" Even before the release of the Condon Report, this historic testimony made it clear that the report's eventual "no-UFO" conclusion was untenable. And in a slashing introduction and commentary, John G. Fuller - who has edited the hearing transcript for readability - exposes the methods and aims of the Condon Committee and shows why it was committed to an anti-UFO position from the start... and how that negative answer was brought about.
