Insufficient Data

Summary

On August 17, 1952, an observer near Fairfield, California, reported an object in the sky. The Air Force record card describes the object as blue in color, tubular in shape, and notes it was first seen in the area.

The file includes Project 10073 worksheets and weather data sheets, but most evaluation fields were left blank. The case was being handled as part of the Air Force's official record of unidentified flying object reports.

The document gives few firm details about time, direction, or duration, and does not state a final Air Force conclusion in the readable text.
