The Condon Committee was a USAF-funded scientific UFO study at the University of Colorado from 1966 to 1968, led by physicist Edward Condon. Its final report concluded that further study of UFOs was unlikely to advance science, which directly led the Air Force to close Project Blue Book in 1969. It matters as the official study that ended US government UFO investigation for decades; critics noted its conclusions sat uneasily with the unexplained cases (about a third) it could not resolve.
