官方文件顯示，國防部成立了一個秘密的飛碟工作小組，在20世紀50年代。

　　The papers show the group involved experts from the Directorate of Scientific Intelligence and the Joint Technical Intelligence Committee.這些文件顯示，集團參與專家局的科學情報和聯合技術情報委員會。

　　It was established in 1951 after a spate of sightings in Sweden and the US led to a "notable outbreak" of reports in Britain.它成立于1951年，近一段時期發現的，在瑞典和美國領導的“顯著的爆發”的報告在英國。

　　However, the scientists gave short shrift to the idea that the earth was facing an alien invasion from space, dismissing the claims as "optical illusions and psychological delusions" - or just plain hoaxes.然而，科學家忽視了短的思想，地球正面臨外來的入侵從空間，駁回了索賠的“光的幻想和心理錯覺” -或只是普通惡作劇。

　　"We consider that no progress will be made by attempting further investigation of unco-ordinated and subjective evidence, and that positive results could only be obtained by organising throughout the country, or the world, continuous observation of the skies by a co-ordinated network of visual observers, equipped with photographic apparatus, and supplemented by a network of radar stations and sound locators," they concluded. “我們認為，沒有取得進展，試圖進一步調查互不協調的和主觀的證據，并取得積極成果只能得到組織在全國各地，或世界各地，連續觀察天空的協調網絡視覺觀察員，配備有攝影儀器，并輔以網絡的雷達站和健全的定位， “他們的結論。

　　"We should regard this, on the evidence so far available, as a singularly profitless enterprise." “我們要把這一點，對迄今提供的證據，作為一個單獨盈利的企業。 ”

　　The papers, being made public for the first time, went on: "We accordingly recommend very strongly that no further investigation of reported mysterious aerial phenomena be undertaken, unless and until some material evidence becomes available."這些文件被公布為第一次，接著又說： “因此，我們建議非常強烈，沒有任何進一步的調查報告的神秘現象進行空中，除非一些物證到位。 ”

　　One of the cases they looked at was RAF Flight Lieutenant Hubbard who twice claimed to have seen "a flat disc, light pearl grey in colour, about 50 feet in diameter" flying low over Farnborough at speeds to 800 to 1,000 mph.其中一個案件是他們期待在英國皇家空軍飛行中尉哈伯德誰兩次聲稱已經看到“平盤，輕珍珠灰色的顏色，大約50英尺，直徑”低空飛行的波音800的速度為1000英里。

　　The scientists drily noted: "We find it impossible to believe that a most unconventional aircraft, of exceptional speed, could have travelled at no great altitude, in the middle of a fine summer morning, over a populous and air-minded district like Farnborough, without attracting the attention of more than one observer."科學家冷冷地指出： “我們不可能認為，最常規飛機，優異的速度，可以前往任何偉大的高度，在中東的罰款夏季上午，在一個人口眾多和空氣一樣志同道合區法恩巴勒在不引起注意的一個以上的觀察員出席了會議。
