Such a.n intensive onslaught on the gravity enigma was
entirely irrational from the standpoint of conventional science,
and can only be rationalized within the context of a firm belief
tbat UFO' s \l'erl' real and thE.t the intell il!7tmces behintl thew. know
how to control gravity.
The drivu to b~rnesE this power before
the USSlt could do !O 1.-ould be a .strong incentive for the U.S.
GoTernment to fully support an anti-grn.v.ity programme.
By 1966,
46 sapa.ra.te projects of this nature were being financially supported,
33 of which wcro under tho ~upcrvision of the U.S. Air Poree.
Al though details of most of these projects havA: been kP-pt. c·l HSS if.ii~d
it would appear that generally they have not been successful.
