Quote from the article:
“Maj. Keyhoe has some impressive support. Vice Admiral Roscoe Hillenkoetter (retired), a former director of the Central Intelligence Agency, says: ‘The unknown objects are operating under intelligent control. It is imperative that we learn where they come from.’

An official of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, Deputy Public Affairs Director Albert M. Chop, has ‘been convinced for a long time’ that the saucers are interplanetary.

The Air Force does not deny that certain UFOs may have
been operated by creatures from outer space. It says only that no
UFO ‘has ever given any indication of a threat to our national 
security.’ ”

Quote from the article:
“Despite persistent scientific debunking, a Gallup Poll taken soon after a rash of reported sightings last year revealed that 51 percent of all Americans believe unidentified flying objects are real, not imaginary, and 11 percent say they’ve seen one or more.”
