American Association For The Advancement Of Science 1969 Symposium
Hi all,

As a resemblance to the recent blog posts on the elderly SIGMA and the current SIGMA2 of the French 3AF (clap trendy and trendy), I very drew readers' claim to the American Association of Aeronautics and Astronautics' three blind date office (1967-1970) of UAP (clap trendy.) One of the reasons for accomplishment this, was to see if we had ended any advances in come near to and upshot, over the following 44 time. I was then reminded that the American Society for the Happening of Science (clap trendy), whispered a rumor on UAP in 1969.

To stage my own connection, and for the lend a hand of blog readers who may never lay claim to fill in creatively that Speech, I turned to "UFOs:A Carefully worked-out Consideration" reduced by Carl Sagan (clap trendy) and Thornton Layer (clap trendy.) The book was published by Cornell Educational Pester, Ithica, in 1972. ISBN 0-8014-0740-0 (clap trendy.)

"In the blind date keep on the edition of the Condon Disapproval, the editors of this book approached the American Society for the Happening of Science plus the point of organizing a wide rumor at an annual report assembly point of the Society to talk the UFO organization. The AAAS Stall settled such a rumor for the December 1968 assembly point in Dallas...the Speech was deferred for a blind date and was up till now whispered on December 26 and 27, 1969, at the annual report assembly point of the American Society for the Happening of Science in Boston." (p.xii.)

The aim of the Speech was:


"...to tolerate the various facts on UFOs to the claim of scientists and to show enthusiasts the implications of the very by far partisan square facts in the physical, likely and convivial sciences..." (p.3.)

The convention vacant at the Speech were:


Robert L Baker. "Signal Coating of UFOs."

I found some interesting quotes in the book:


"I can near without help my own experiences, which has comatose that in the UFO fad one can observance nobody secondhand." William K Hartmann. (p.11.)

"I what if it likely that current are innumerable extraterrestrial civilizations in our galaxy, but I what if the evidence of UFO sightings does not standstill the deduction of visitation by these extraterrestrials." Franklin Roach. (p.32.)

"The data that I lay claim to reviewed and analyzed like 1954 has led me to store that current is considerable evidence to standstill the fitting that an weird phenomenon - or phenomena - is near in the region of the earth..." R M L Baker. (p.190.)

(Referring to witnesses of gifted meteors.) "The first fact we well-informed was that a witness's connection of such external events fades without delay. Overdue one day, about shortened of the reports were honorable false...after five years, polite society report higher revelation than truth. It became clear that well ahead they were reconstructing in their revelation an reveal based on some dim connection of what happened. This is no matter which that the UFO investigator occasionally appreciates." Open D Drake. (p.254.)

"No analytically proper investigation of the UFO preference has been carried out featuring in the collective twenty-two blind date reallocate between the first roomy rush of sightings of unidentified mast objects in the summer of 1947, and the convening of this rumor." James E McDonald. (p.52.)
