Description

A six-page draft paper titled 'Relationships with Inhabitants of Celestial Bodies,' attributed to J. Robert Oppenheimer and Albert Einstein. The first known document to use the phrase 'Extraterrestrial Biological Entities' (EBEs). States that the presence of unidentified spacecraft is accepted as de facto by the military. Addresses legal, diplomatic, and philosophical questions regarding extraterrestrial contact, including the possible need for 'Cosmic International Law' and a 'Law Among Planetary Peoples.' Also discusses how nuclear testing may have attracted extraterrestrial attention.

Authenticity Assessment

Researchers consider this document to have a medium-high authenticity rating; multiple corroborating details have been verified, though definitive proof remains elusive.

The United States government has officially denied the existence of any organization called Majestic 12, MJ-12, or Majic-12. The FBI declared the core MJ-12 documents "completely bogus" on November 30, 1988, after receiving information from the Air Force Office of Special Investigations (AFOSI) that no such committee had ever been authorized or formed. Despite this, researchers including Stanton T. Friedman and Dr. Robert M. Wood have argued that individual documents within the Majestic corpus show evidence of authenticity through forensic analysis of paper, ink, typeface, format conventions, and verifiable historical references.

Historical Context

Majestic 12 is claimed to have been established by special classified executive order of President Harry S. Truman on September 24, 1947, upon recommendation by Secretary of Defense James Forrestal and Dr. Vannevar Bush. The core documents were first publicly circulated in 1984–1987 by ufologists Jaime Shandera, William L. Moore, and Stanton T. Friedman. The Eisenhower Briefing Document — the central MJ-12 document — was found on undeveloped 35mm film delivered anonymously to Shandera's mailbox in December 1984.
