Editing Majestic 12 — Aquarius Briefing Document (section)

== 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show evidence of authenticity through forensic analysis of paper, ink, typeface, format conventions, and verifiable historical references.
