Quote from the Wikipedia article:

“At a Congressional UFO hearing on April 5, 1966, Air Force Secretary Harold Brown defended the Air Force’s UFO studies and repeated the O'Brien Committee’s call for more studies.

Astrophysicist Peter A. Sturrock wrote that ‘critical reviews...came from scientists who had actually carried out research in the UFO area, while the laudatory reviews came from scientists who had not carried out such research.’ ”
