History
Project Blue Book was founded in September, 1999, by Brian Uitti, with concept originator Jack Reed. Early support came from Tharconian leaders, WakefieldAlien and DarkFlite, and our Shadows Theorist Jeff O'Callaghan. Brian's brothers Dan and Stephen Uitti provided additional development. Other early support was from Olde employees, Jedi, tobert, and Ganga.

Project Blue Book is a non-profit team to provide volunteer services to Seti@home as described by the scientific program. Early members are from different parts of the United States of America. A nation wide membership was quickly developed, which quickly lead to International involvement. Due to the team's early successes, many members joined the team through simple recruiting efforts.
