When Did The Uk Government Become Interested In Flying Saucers
Hi allIn a carry on post (28 November) I mentioned that it appeared that the Regal Australian Air Force's (RAAF) First-class of Air Switch Intelligence's files on flying saucers, began in 1950, three go after the campaigner origin of the probe.I wondered while industrial affection in the probe, commenced in the United Kingdom? To declare this claim I turned to David Clarke's bloat work "The UFO files." 2009. The Formal History. Kew, Surrey. ISBN 978-1-905615-506. Clarke worked gone the Formal History and has an encyclopedic erudition of the UK government's UFO files. On slip 40 of this book I found:"Flying Best china were regarded as in sum an American phenomenon until 1950, while British the media began to get up an affection in the nascent mystery." Clarke goes on to situation books on flying saucers by Keyhoe. "His books and fill with of others who followed led a broadcast of supervisor statistics in the British military establishment to manipulate the probe vitally for the first time." (Clarke p.41.)Among fill with weird was Sir Henry Tizard who became Control Mechanical Advisor to the ministry of Defence. "It was as a go by notch of his constraint that the British government was persuaded to set up a little effective reliant to explore the mystery, reporting to the directorate of Mechanical Intelligence/Joint Mysterious Brainpower Agency (DSI/JTIC) unfinished of the Ministry of defence." (p.41.) in Grand 1950.So, it would noise that also the UK and Australian government's "industrial" affection in flying saucers, started in 1950.
