KGB agents were making records of UFO observations in special Blue Folder
Files comprising the famous Blue Folder have been declassified a while ago. The prominent Soviet cosmonaut Pavel Popovich got the folder from the KGB in 1991. These days Mr. Popovich holds the position of honorary president of the Academy of Informational and Applied Ufology. The folder contains numerous descriptions of UFO flights and reports on some (mostly failed) attempts taken by the military in order to catch the aliens.
Aliens acknowledged back in 1968
In 1968, 13 leading aircraft designers and engineers of a brand-new aircraft section of the Soviet Committee on Space Technology and Exploration forwarded a letter to the Soviet Prime Minister Alexei Kosygin. Actually, it was a request to set up a special organization for the study of UFOs. A reply to the letter was signed by Academician Shchukin. It is an amazing document per se:
"A number of competent organizations of the Presidium of the USSR Academy of Sciences in cooperation with the Chief Directorate of Meteorological Service, Defense Ministry and a few other agencies considered the issue of nature of the so-called flying objects. The organizations involved in the study of the atmosphere and space have been instructed to register and do research on any cases of UFOs for identification purposes. The USSR Academy of Sciences is charged with general monitoring of the phenomena, and therefore a special organization for the study of UFOs is not required."
"It was a real breakthrough," says Vladimir Azhazha, president of the above academy and keeper of the Blue Folder. "The authorities not only acknowledged the existence of UFOs for the first time, they also showed their great interest in the issue," adds he.

"UFOs and communism. The wet dreams of the reality-based community"
Aw, please, stop bashing them so hard. Most people believe in something.
Not to mention Boriska, the indigo boy from Mars, who predicts mammoth catastrophes in 2009...
After having flown on Russian planes, any irratic movements and burning and crashing objects is totally believable.
This must be evil Soviet propaganda. Everyone knows there's no such thing as UFO's.
"But to be fair the same page has some nonsense about ancient egpytian airplanes."
I've seen the tomb pictures and damn if those things don't look like gliders to me. Of course it couldn't be true because we all know there weren't any high-tech civilizations previous to ours since the world was created only a few thousand years ago.
This is a real winner. |
--I would assume the soviets had collected film (gun cammeras on fighters), photos and trace evidence. I wonder if there is any mention in the folder as to the existence of this kind of evidence?
Evidence of what? Something...an optical illusion..weather balloon..unidentified aircraft..etc. Here we have a camera shot of an unidentified object. As you can see..it is still an unidentified object.
