NSA recent UFO document release more interesting for what it “could” not find

A recent UFO-related document release by the U.S. National Security Agency purportedly “in response to the numerous requests received by NSA on the subject of Unidentified Flying Objects (UFO)” is more interesting for what it “could” not find that what it actually released to the public domain.

The UFO related documents released by NSA are limited to 42 sets of documents. The preponderance of these documents are documents generated by the UFO research community. NSA states in a brief preface to its release, “In 1980, NSA was involved in Civil Action No. 80-1562, "Citizens Against Unidentified Flying Objects Secrecy v. National Security Agency". Documents related to that litigation are marked with ‘*’.” An inordinate number of the UFO-related documents released by NSA relate to legal papers in the 1980 lawsuit brought by CAUS under the leadership of Arizona attorney Peter Gerstein, over 30 years ago.

Reached for comment in Sedona, Arizona, attorney Peter Gerstein of CAUS stated that the CAUS documents NSA recently "released" has in fact been released publicly by NSA approximately 20 years ago, and that this recent NSA "release" did not consitute a new release.
