“Dr. (Anthony O.) Mirarchi (air chemist, U.S. Air Force) said that after studying extensive files of the Office of Strategic Information, covering hundreds of eyewitness reports of flying saucers or ‘fireballs,’ he concluded the observations were consistent with ‘a missile programmed in advance.’ ”
A number of the fireball observations came from the area around Los Alamos National Laboratory, according to Dr. Mirarchi.
