Project Mogul: The Real Answer
  Project Mogul was a super-secret operation in 1947 that involved the use of
constant-level balloon trains that were equipped with various instruments for
intelligence gathering purposes. Constant level balloon trains are clusters
of balloons that are balanced so that they can float at a fairly consistent
altitude and not continually rise up into the atmosphere. Project Mogul was a
classified operation begun by the U.S. government after the end of World War
II to spy on the former Soviet Union in order to determine the status of
Russian attempts to build nuclear weapons. Project Mogul was so secret and
sensitive that it had a national security rating of "Top Secret A-1," equal
to that of the original Manhattan Project (the effort to build the world's
first atomic bomb).
  While a Project Mogul balloon array has been mentioned before as a
candidate for the Roswell object, unfortunately the case for it remained
unproven - until now. In my book, I present previously unpublished, formerly
classified photos and drawings of various components of Mogul that can be
visually compared by the reader to photos of the actual wreckage that was
recovered. From these photos and drawings, it is clear that it is the same
material.
  I also present statements from the surviving members of the secret Project
Mogul team. In particular is an interview with Professor Charles Moore, the
main scientist behind Mogul's New York University balloon experiments and the
man who actually launched the very balloon train that was recovered by 
arcel.
 In addition to discussing Project Mogul and its history, Professor Moore
also speaks for the first time about specific pro-UFO Roswell authors that
have contacted him.
  When I asked Professor Moore if UFO researcher Stanton Friedman had ever
contacted or interviewed him about Roswell, he told me that in the early
1990s Friedman had placed a newspaper ad in the local paper soliciting
witnesses to Roswell, and that he wrote to Friedman and later met him and his
coauthor, Don Berliner, at a hotel in Socorro.
  When I inquired as to how their discussion went, Professor Moore told me
bluntly that Friedman and Berliner did not want to hear his side of the story
and then accused him and his group of being part of the coverup.
  It is curious that nowhere in Friedman and Berliner's Crash at Corona is
this meeting ever mentioned, nor has Friedman ever noted it in his published
writings, nor has he ever refuted the overwhelming and convincing evidence
that the whole Roswell UFO hysteria was caused by people who didn't know the
identity of the recovered material, the discovery of which just happened to
take place during that unique period of time in mid-1947 when the flying
saucer craze was first sweeping America.
