In the post-war years in America, UFO sightings became so common that they warranted an entire U.S. Air Force investigation. Known as Project Blue Book, the mission stretched from 1947 to 1969. The information was available before, but only for those willing to schlep down to the National Archives. Now the archive has digitized this information, so you can see what the Air Force found.(There's more here. Digg also compiled some pretty choice finds from the archives.)Above is the first drawing of what aviator Kenneth Arnold described as behaving like a "saucer skipped across water," which the press termed "flying saucers." Suddenly, everyone was seeing a disc shaped object in the sky.
