[ILLEGIBLE], [ILLEGIBLE] - Incident Number: [ILLEGIBLE]Date unknown

Insufficient Data

Summary

This case file is too heavily damaged by scanning artifacts and OCR errors to support a reliable summary. The OCR'd text, particularly on pages 1-2, is largely unintelligible noise. While later pages become somewhat more readable, they consist primarily of administrative rosters, indices of other incidents (1-172), and form letters from Air Materiel Command headquarters dated January 1949 that discuss Project "SIGH" (the investigation program) in general terms, rather than details of a specific sighting.

The only coherent narrative appears on pages 3-8, which document an incident on July 3, 1947, in South Brooksville, Maine, involving an observer who heard an unusually loud roar and saw a group of light-colored objects at approximately 50 degrees elevation, traveling northwest. The observer estimated the objects' speed between 600 and 1200 miles per hour depending on their distance, and noted two dark forms visible on the edge of the group. The Air Force evaluation dismissed the possibility of meteors but did not offer a definitive explanation. The file notes that the observer was described as a well-known scientist and reliable observer, though his suggestion that objects might be meteorites is questioned.

The remaining 11 pages appear to be administrative materials and indices rather than case-specific investigation details. The full case file is reproduced below as held by the National Archives, comprising 19 pages.
