In 1978, the United States Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) declassified hundreds of documents detailing its investigations into unidentified flying objects (UFOs) from the late 1940s through the 1950s. The agency has decided to do it again and opens its files from its FOIA UFO collection so that both skeptics and believers can investigate.
This is a list includes 10 publications and they comprise the golden decade of sightings, which ran from 1940 to 1950. The CIA divides its documents into two groups.
