Project Blue Book
was officially shut down in 1969 with the archive made available
to the public in 2015. As it turns out, the archive
is far from complete. Following a discovery
by UFO investigator Rob Mercer, who lived close to the Wright-Patterson
Air Force Base in Ohio, many previously undisclosed cases
recorded by the US military and collated by Project Blue Book
came to light. Thanks to a classified advertisement offering official military files
related to UFOs, Mercer took possession
of a cache of boxes. These boxes were filled with
documents stored in a garage by a former military base officer. Thanks in large part to Mercer, a much clearer picture
of the history of the project and the sheer volume of information
in its possession, came to light. April, 1964. Socorro, New Mexico
