Ufon i amerikansk reklam under kalla kriget 1947 - 1989
Project MUSE - Flying Saucers and UFOs in US Advertising During the Cold War, 1947–1989 (jhu.edu)
"För några dagar sedan såg jag att AFU-vännen och historikern professor Greg Eghigian hade varit och skrivit en intressant akademisk essä med titeln ”Flying Saucers and UFOs in US Advertising During the Cold War, 1947–1989” som alla kan komma åt att läsa. Spännande och lärorikt att följa hur reklamen har använt sig av flygande tefats- och ufotemat under kalla kriget."

Docent i historia om kriget i Ukraina
"Marie Cronqvist är docent i historia och lektor i journalistik och mediehistoria vid Lunds universitet. Hon är aktuell med boken ”Cold War Civil Defence in Western Europe” .
Medan människor flyr för sina liv och ukrainska städer skoningslöst jämnas med marken har en isande vind från det kalla krigets dagar svept in i de post-pandemiska svenska hemmen. De slutsålda jodtabletterna är kanske det mest talande exemplet på den oro som nu finns. Tabletterna kapslar in ett komplext fenomen, en 1900-talsberättelse om oro och modernitet i koncentrat."

Mutual mistrust may have added a few X-files to the UFO era
"UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. -- Uncloaking the flying saucer movement in the United States could offer historians a snapshot of Cold War attitudes at work in society, as well as insights into how science communication may be tied to current denialism and conspiracy theory movements, according to a Penn State historian.
Scientists, military officials and amateur unidentified flying object investigators -- often called ufologists -- have clashed almost since the start of the modern flying saucer era, which began in 1947 when aviator Kenneth Arnold spotted what he claimed were nine silver flying discs in the Cascade Mountains of Washington, said Greg Eghigian, associate professor of modern history, Penn State.
"From that event, this very quickly explodes and becomes a focus of media attention, but the question for me as a historian is why haven't historians been more curious about what took place and what has been going on for some time now," said Eghigian. "It's had clear impact on the way people think about science, the way people think about technology and the way they think about government and authority."
Eghigian, who reports his finding in a recent issue of Public Understanding of Science, said that the UFO phenomenon has ebbed and flowed since the late 1940s, but has recently died down from its height, something he attributes to the end of the Cold War."

Australiens flygvapen har en historia med ufo
The RAAF and the UFO's: some of the story | Naval Historical ...
för 13 timmar sedan — Wing Commander Paget discussed the RAAF's investigation of Unidentified Flying Objects – UFO's. UFO sightings became common during the Cold War ...
"In the 1950’s, the Australian government in concert with the governments of UK and the USA, decided that informed investigation should be undertaken. By the 1970s, UFO sightings had become so commonplace that the Royal Australian Air Force, charged with the responsibility of investigating such phenomena, provided pro-forma questionnaires to members of the public who reported seeing a UFO, and published summaries of recent sightings. There was some justification. From 1952 to 1963 the British Government, with the agreement and support of Australia, had conducted nuclear tests at three sites in Australia and was highly sensitive, even in those pre-satellite days, to the dangers of espionage from the air."
