NASA DOCUMENTS
On October 21, 2003, CFi and the SCI FI Channel announced their intent to take legal
action against the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to
force the release of records on the 1965 UFO incident in Kecksburg, PA. The
next day, a NASA official contacted CFi attorney Lee Helfrich to say the agency
was forwarding 36 pages of documents responsive to our FOIA request and apologized
that it had ‘overlooked’ sending out the results of its research
sooner.
After ten months of pursuing the records in Washington, D.C. through the Freedom
of Information Act, NASA had finally responded to public pressure. Yet the
documents were not responsive to our request, and provided us with no new
information. We will proceed with filing a lawsuit in U.S. District Court
for the District of Columbia, as soon as we have officially exhausted all
administrative procedures so as to comply with the requirements of the court.
