For a long time science has been regarding the subject of UFOs as a taboo because it was regularly ridiculed by the media. One can however wonder whether somebody voluntarily indeed tried to dissuade the scientists from considering this subject.

The UFO phenomenon being extremely complex and diversified, one can hardly find a complete explanation for it without immediately thinking of a counterexample which comes to invalidate this explanation. This book thus proposes initially to present the whole causes which contribute to the existence of the UFO phenomenon. Some of these causes are known: natural phenomena, human mistake, swindle... Others are less known: "paranormal" phenomena... Lastly, a cause remains still largely unsuspected: the military would actively get busy to nourish the belief in the extraterrestrials, and the best cases of "close encounters" would be ascribable to them.

There is indeed a correlation between the movement of the moon and the sun and the appearances of UFOs. This correlation could be explained by the use that the military would make of the lighting of the moon and the sun to dissimulate the source of a luminous projection aiming at simulating a UFO. Thousands of unexplained observations of UFOs to date could thus be allotted to the military secret services, including famous "close encounters of the 4^th kind" or "abductions by extraterrestrials" which would be hallucinations caused artificially to the witnesses by the manipulators. It is what this research tries to show with all the necessary scientific rigour. More than 300  for the majority French cases were analyzed, of which a score in detail. The causes of the accident of the flight TWA 800 which made 230 victims in 1996 off New York are re-examined on this occasion.

In the last part of this book, the author answers the objections with the "military hypothesis" and shows that this psychological war was perhaps already at work during the apparitions of Fatima in 1917. But do the secret services of the major military powers act from reasons of State or have they been infiltrated by an occult group?
