Arnold, Kenneth On the 24th June 1947, pilot Kenneth Arnold observed nine strange objects flying in formations over Mount Rainier in the Cascade Mountains, Washington. He had a second sighting five days later when he saw 20-25 brass colored objects within 400 yards when he flew over the La Grande valley. This started the UFO hysteria that's been ongoing ever since. The term "Flying Saucer" was used by Kenneth Arnold to describe how the UFOs moved in the air. A misunderstanding that it was the shape of the UFOs he described gave birth to the now classical description "Flying Saucer".
Blanchard, Colonel William The officer at the Roswell Army-Air Force Base who authorized the press release that they had found the wreckage of a crashed UFO.
Blue Book, Project It all started in March of 1952 to find explanations to all of the UFO sightings occurring at that time. The goal of the project was to determine if they were a threat to the national security and if the UFOs used any kind of advance technology that could be useful to the US. Thousands of reports were collected, analyzed and filed according to their results and there seemed to be no problem until one of the people who worked in the investigation team sent in his own sighting report. It was filed but later disappeared. He understood that reports that are unexplained could cause public fear so they were removed from the files of Project Blue Book and passed on to a higher authority. As the result of the Condon Report, Project Blue Book was shut down in 1969. This project was the last publicly known UFO research project lead by the USAF
BUFORA The British UFO Research Association. The largest UFO group in Great Britain and has been going on since 1964. They are doing research into UFO phenomena and also publishe a bi-monthly journal called "UFO Times". Website: http://www.bufora.org.uk/
Cattle Mutilations Started sometime before the 1970´s. Cattle are killed and found mutilated on the farm. Some are found completely drained of blood and some with vital organs removed, often the sexual organs. The surgical operations were very advanced and these techniques were not yet discovered at the time the mutilations started to appear. The connection between the mutilations and UFOs seems to be that discoveries of mutilated cattle and UFO sightings often go hand in hand.

Condon, Edward The man who lead the UFO Project at the Colorado University. In 1969 they published "Scientific Study of Unidentified Flying Objects", aka the "CONDON Report". It spoke against the reality of UFOs and gave the USAF a chance to close Project Blue Book without publishing any investigations of UFOs.
Condon Report, The The US Air Force commissioned the University of Colorado in 1966 to perform a scientific study of UFOs. The project was headed by Dr Edward Condon. In 1969 they published "Scientific Study of Unidentified Flying Objects" which debunked all UFO phenomena. Later FOIA released documents has shown that the CIA had involvement in the report and was responsible for the debunking reports. The Condon Report was used as an official excuse to shut down Project Blue Book in 1969. Website: http://www.ncas.org/condon/
