I think studies like this are important they help us look at problems in a different light. We are taught that certain substances cause addiction and
although this is not in dispute it seems the reasons for addiction might not be as simple as first thought.

The modern age of the UFO runs along parallel to the history of the Cold War. Both began shortly after World War II during the late 1940s and
continued for 4 decades. Those years produced the majority of ‘classic’ UFO cases that fill books, websites and TV documentaries with most of
their content to this day. By the early 1990s the Cold War was over. Shortly afterwards the last flashes of that ‘classic’ UFO age also seemed to
blink out with the Phoenix lights in 1997.
This post looks at how just one Cold War project may have been linked to UFO cases of that era.
