Project Magnet was an official Canadian Department of Transport UFO study (1950-1954) led by engineer Wilbert B. Smith, who hypothesized UFOs might exploit geomagnetic principles for propulsion. It ran a small instrumented detection station at Shirleys Bay near Ottawa. It matters as one of the earliest government-sanctioned UFO research programs, though it was quietly shut down after producing no conclusive results.
