Green fireballs reached FBI headquarters

This is Section 6 of FBI headquarters file 62-HQ-83894, covering 1950 to 1952 records on New Mexico 'green fireballs,' discs, and flying saucers, including an Air Force OSI summary, Dr. Lincoln LaPaz's analysis, Project Twinkle, civilian and radar sightings, and a Look magazine article blaming Navy Skyhook balloons. The green-fireball material is more serious than ordinary saucer mail because it involves New Mexico, scientists, and sensitive sites. Even so, the file moves through guesses rather than answers, showing both a real mystery and a steady effort to explain it with everyday causes.
