Project Blue Book Case File
ALBUQUERQUE, NEW MEXICOOctober 1954
Summary
I cannot reliably summarize this case. The OCR quality of the source documents is too poor to extract clear, accurate information. Pages 3-8 are largely illegible, with heavily corrupted text that makes it impossible to distinguish facts from scanning artifacts.
What I can extract from the readable portions (pages 1-2) is minimal:
On October 13, 1954, at 1802 hours (6:02 p.m.), a civilian observer in Albuquerque, New Mexico reported seeing one circular, white object with no trail or exhaust and no sound. The sighting lasted approximately eight seconds. No photographs were taken. The Air Force investigator concluded the sighting was a reflection of the sun off conventional aircraft.
The full case file is reproduced below as held by the National Archives, consisting of 8 pages.
