USAF Scientific Advisory Group

The USAF Scientific Advisory Group was a body of civilian scientific consultants to the United States Air Force, tasked with advising on technical and scientific matters relevant to Air Force operations. The group is notable in UAP history as one of three mandatory recipients of all Project Sign reports, alongside the Army and Navy Research and Development Board and the Atomic Energy Commission. This distribution requirement indicates that UFO investigations in the late 1940s were treated as matters requiring high-level scientific review across military and nuclear agencies.
