- >From 'THE UFO ENCYCLOPEDIA', by John Spencer (Avon Books., 1993),
- under the heading 'DR. OTTO STROVE', we read how this astrophysicist
- assisted Frank Drake in establishing Project OZMA, and it's very
- mysterious conclusion:
-
- "...the project began its search by focusing on the star TAUCETI.
- According to claims made at the time, AS SOON AS the project got
- underway STRONG INTELLIGENT SIGNALS were picked up, leaving all the
- scientists stunned.
-
- "Abruptly, Dr. Strove then declared Project OZMA had been shut down,
- and commented that there was no sensible purpose for listening to
- messages from another world."
- [Note: Or, was this merely an 'excuse' used to keep the Project and
- it's findings SECRET? If not, then Dr. Strove would seem to have an
- extremely warped idea about what is or isn't"sensible" - Branton]
