One man authorized this event after Edwin H. Land talked about the ability to find a golf ball at 2000 yards. After this event, the Chinese contingent at the Bucharest Communist Congress used it to reject Soviet assertions about peace, while Khalid Mahmud Arif said his country felt "deceived," even though the United States had permission to operate in Peshawar. The Four Power Paris Summit failed to resolve this event, and a year later, one participant would be exchanged in Berlin for the captured Rudolf Abel. One participant created a cover story of a meteorological study gone awry in northern Turkey, but Dwight Eisenhower's cover-up was proven false when Nikita Khrushchev showed surveillance photos of the very-much alive Francis Gary Powers.
