3030N 17417E, May 1962May 1962

Insufficient Data

Summary

In May 1962, an observer reported an object in the sky and held it visually for a short time. The object was white in color, bearing about 130 degrees true, and appeared to be at high altitude. The report was forwarded to air defense command.

The record card and attached messages are heavily garbled in the scanned text. Key details such as the exact date, place, witness, and the Air Force's conclusion cannot be read clearly.

This report was filed under Project 10073, the Air Force's official record for unidentified flying object reports. Because so little can be read with confidence, no full account can be given.
