UFO Disclosure: The story so far

Spanish ufologist Vicente-Juan Ballester Olmos has put together a sober and timely summary of UFO information officially released by the world’s governments.

This is not to be confused with the American ‘Disclosure’ movement that seeks to have its beliefs about an ET presence on Earth confirmed by the US government.

Writes Olmos:

This is the first synthesis or synopsis ever done of the status of declassification or release of official UFO archives by every government in the world, accurately updated to May 2009.

In this context by “UFO disclosure” I mean the revelation, declassification or release of official UFO reports from governmental files, placed in the public domain either directly or via the news media, researchers, and UFO organizations.

It is true that the term “disclosure” has been lately associated to a certain movement which is not really grounded in reality, but I want to reclaim possession of this word for use in rational discourse.

With the publication of this essay, I plan to achieve several objectives; firstly, I would like to provide a compilation of historical data that illuminates a generally obscure subject. Then, I hope it will generate feedback to expand this table and improve its accuracy. Also, government officials may be inspired to commence similar release processes in their countries.
