Description

My submission statement:

In this photo, a US Air Force C-119J is shown with a special modification allowing it to capture the film by scooping up the falling parachute. The parachute has the film from a spy satellite.

Launching these spy satellites was the first big mission of the NRO, the agency for whom David Grusch was the liaison to the UAP Task Force, officially formed in 1961.

The NRO is a joint mission between the CIA and Air Force, the two groups most resistant to Disclosure and the two groups that were established in the weeks after (https://www.reddit.com/r/UFOs/comments/159spys/the_47_connection_rosw…) Roswell.

1960 was the same year that NASA launched the Echo 1 (https://www.reddit.com/r/UFOs/comments/15jynx7/in_1960_nasa_launched_…) metallic satellite communication balloon. This was one of NASA's first missions, founded (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NASA) in 1958.
