Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

For more than two decades, the United States Air Force officially investigated the greatest mystery in modern aviation. From 1947 to 1969, across Projects Sign, Grudge, and Blue Book, military intelligence cataloged over twelve thousand reports of strange aerial phenomena. The public was told it was all a mix of atmospheric mirages, weather balloons, bright stars, and hysteria.Yet behind closed doors, a very different story took shape.Drawing directly from the declassified records of the National Archives, this comprehensive history cuts through seventy years of myth, military secrecy, and sensationalism to examine what really happened when the impossible entered American airspace. From the tragic high-altitude pursuit of Captain Thomas Mantell and the dogfight over Fargo to the multi-sensor invasion of Washington, D.C. and the radar encounters of the Cold War, discover the cases that defied every conventional explanation.Explore the institutional tug-of-war between curious scientists and nervous Pentagon brass, the classified role of the CIA's Robertson Panel, the explosive controversies of the Condon Report, and the irreducible core of 701 official cases that the Air Force could never explain away. Meticulously researched and narrative-driven, this book reveals how the military handled the unknown, why the files were closed, and what remains lingering in the skies.
