Extractions: An extraordinary 95 percent of all Americans have at least heard or read something about Unidentified Flying Objects (UFOs), and 57 percent believe they are real. Former US Presidents Carter and Reagan claim to have seen a UFO. UFOlogistsa neologism for UFO buffsand private UFO organizations are found throughout the United States. Many are convinced that the US Government, and particularly CIA, are engaged in a massive conspiracy and coverup of the issue. The idea that CIA has secretly concealed its research into UFOs has been a major theme of UFO buffs since the modern UFO phenomena emerged in the late 1940s. In late 1993, after being pressured by UFOlogists for the release of additional CIA information on UFOs, DCI R. James Woolsey ordered another review of all Agency files on UFOs. Using CIA records compiled from that review, this study traces CIA interest and involvement in the UFO controversy from the late 1940s to 1990. It chronologically examines the Agency's efforts to solve the mystery of UFOs, its programs that had an impact on UFO sightings, and its attempts to conceal CIA involvement in the entire UFO issue. What emerges from this examination is that, while Agency concern over UFOs was substantial until the early 1950s, CIA has since paid only limited and peripheral attention to the phenomena. The emergence in 1947 of the Cold War confrontation between the United States and the Soviet Union also saw the first wave of UFO sightings. The first report of a "flying saucer" over the United States came on 24 June 1947, when Kenneth Arnold, a private pilot and reputable businessman, while looking for a downed plane sighted nine disk-shaped objects near Mt. Rainier, Washington, traveling at an estimated speed of over 1,000 mph. Arnold's report was followed by a flood of additional sightings, including reports from military and civilian pilots and air traffic controllers all over the United States.

Conclusion Chapter 7: Introduction In the late 1940s and again in the early 1950s, Massachusetts Institute of Technology scientists conducting research fed breakfast food containing minute amounts of radioactive iron and calcium to a number of students at the Walter E. Fernald School, a Massachusetts institution for "mentally retarded" children. The National Institutes of Health, the Atomic Energy Commission, and the Quaker Oats Company funded the research, which was designed to determine how the body absorbed iron, calcium, and other minerals from dietary sources and to explore the effect of various compounds in cereal on mineral absorption. In 1961, researchers from Harvard Medical School, Massachusetts General Hospital, and Boston University School of Medicine administered small amounts of radioactive iodine to seventy children at the Wrentham State School, another Massachusetts facility for mentally retarded children. With funding from the Division of Radiologic Health of the U.S. Public Health Service, the scientists conducting this experiment used Wrentham students to test a proposed countermeasure to nuclear fallout. Specifically, the study was meant to determine the amount of nonradioactive iodine that would effectively block the uptake of radioactive iodine that would be released in a nuclear explosion.

Send mail to webmaster@solventhistory.com Carbon Tetrachloride Perchloroethylene / Tetrachloroethylene (PCE) Trichloroethylene (TCE) ... 1,2-dichloroethane (ethylene dichloride) The first chlorinated solvent to come into general use, carbon tetrachloride (CTC) was imported from Germany into the US as early as 1898. Under the trade name Carbona, it became an enormously popular dry cleaning and spot removing agent. CTC was produced in the US in significant quantities by Dow Chemical Company and Warner Chemical shortly after the turn of the century. CTC's first widespread uses were as a household cleaning agent and a fire extinguishing fluid. Fumigation of stored grains with CTC began before World War I, but became more widely adopted as better equipment and techniques were developed during the war. Because CTC produces highly toxic phosgene gas when heated in the presence of moisture, its use as a fire extinguisher came under scrutiny in the 1920s and 1930s. Additives were later developed and used to prevent phosgene formation. CTC also saw some medicinal use as a hookworm treatment in animals, and, primarily in tropical regions, in humans.
