The paper itself.
The archive cites 3,325 sources. This is where the ones we can lawfully host live — in full, unaltered, with a guide to what is on which page. 7 documents, 33 MB.
We did not obtain any of these; the releasing agency did, and someone else published them first. What we add is the reading: which page carries the sentence a case file quotes. Government file trees move and archives go down — four of the first seven source URLs checked for this project had already moved or started refusing requests. A citation that resolves is worth more than one that used to.

Report 23-085 — the BOP's custody of Jeffrey Epstein
U.S. Department of Justice, Office of the Inspector General
The document almost every account of Epstein's death relies on, usually at second hand. Read directly it is more specific than the summaries, and on the central point — the camera — it says close to the opposite of what is commonly reported.

Operation Castle, Project 4.1: Study of Response of Human Beings Accidentally Exposed to Significant Fallout Radiation
E. P. Cronkite and others; Naval Medical Research Institute and U.S. Naval Radiological Defense Laboratory, for the Atomic Energy Commission
The document at the centre of the accusation that the United States used the people of Rongelap as experimental subjects. It is cited constantly and read almost never. Its own first page of text states three objectives, and the third — “to conduct a scientific study of radiation injury in human beings” — is the one the argument turns on.

Project Megiddo
Federal Bureau of Investigation, Domestic Terrorism/Counterterrorism Planning Section
A report everybody characterises and almost nobody quotes. It is short — 32 pages — and the FBI removed it from its own website years ago, so the versions in general circulation are third-party retypings on advocacy and religious-studies sites. This is the Bureau’s own PDF, preserved by GPO. Read directly, its executive summary contains a concession that neither its defenders nor its critics tend to mention.

Government Records: Results of a Search for Records Concerning the 1947 Crash Near Roswell, New Mexico
U.S. General Accounting Office, report to Rep. Steven H. Schiff. GAO/NSIAD-95-187
The most-cited and least-read document in the Roswell case. A congressman asked the government’s own auditors to go and look for the records; this is what they found, and what they found missing. Twenty-six pages, fully searchable, and it does not say what either side says it says.

1997
The Roswell Report: Case Closed
Capt. James McAndrew, Secretary of the Air Force Declassification and Review Team; Headquarters United States Air Force
The Air Force’s second and final report, and the one that tried to explain the bodies. Whatever you make of its conclusions, it is the official position stated at length with its sources attached — 232 pages including signed witness statements and an appendix of dummy-drop locations. It is quoted constantly and read rarely.

Unclassified Report on the President's Surveillance Program
Offices of Inspectors General of the Department of Defense, Department of Justice, Central Intelligence Agency, National Security Agency and Office of the Director of National Intelligence. Report No. 2009-0013-AS
The official account of the warrantless surveillance programme, written by the five inspectors general who had access to the classified record and required by statute to report to Congress. It is the document the case file is built on, and it is short enough to read in an evening.

13 March 1962
Justification for US Military Intervention in Cuba (Operation Northwoods)
U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff
This is the document the case file is about. It is short, it is signed, and it says what it says — which is why the page you are reading exists: so the claim and the paper can be checked against each other in two clicks rather than taken on trust.

Report of Inspection of MKULTRA
Central Intelligence Agency, Office of the Inspector General
The only systematic internal review of MKULTRA written while it was running, and it survived because the Inspector General filed his copy apart from the records destroyed in 1973. It recommends ending the covert testing on unwitting Americans a decade before the programme stopped, and it measures the risk of that testing in damage to the Agency.

Project MKULTRA, The CIA's Program of Research in Behavioral Modification
U.S. Senate, Select Committee on Intelligence and Subcommittee on Health and Scientific Research, 95th Congress, 1st Session
Almost everything publicly known about MKULTRA runs through this one day. It is the hearing at which the CIA, having said the records were destroyed, produced the ones that were not. The transcript is fully searchable in this copy.

Epstein Files Transparency Act
119th Congress, H.R. 4405 — Public Law 119–38
Four pages, and the instruction behind the document releases of December 2025 and January 2026. It enumerates by category what must be published — including the records of Epstein’s detention and death, and any records about the destruction or alteration of recordings — and states in terms that embarrassment and political sensitivity are not grounds to withhold.

Mechanisms of slab avalanche release and impact in the Dyatlov Pass incident in 1959
Johan Gaume and Alexander M. Puzrin, Communications Earth & Environment 2:10 (2021)
The most-cited modern attempt to give the avalanche hypothesis a physical mechanism. It is worth reading in full rather than in summary, because what it claims is narrower than what it is usually reported to claim.

What gets hosted
Only two things: US federal government works, which are public domain, and openly-licensed research whose licence permits redistribution. Books, news articles and press-agency material are cited and linked, never hosted.
A document also has to earn the space. A mirror of a PDF that is already easy to find, and that we have nothing to say about, is not worth the bytes — it will not outrank the original and it makes the site heavier. The test is whether we can tell you what is on which page.
Nothing here is re-compressed, re-OCR’d or cleaned up. If a scan is poor, that is a fact about the record.
