1:05 a.m. PST. Control Tower operators observed to the
northeast, an object, oval in shape and the size of a nickel held at
arm's length. The object had a brilliant blue light with flashing red
light and was at an elevation approximately 20 degrees at 45 degrees
azimuth. The witnesses described the object as two saucers placed face
to face. The total length of the observation was two hours. Just before
the object disappeared, the UFOB remained stationary for about 8
minutes then rose very rapidly to the right of azimuth 45 degrees true,
apparently away from this station since the brilliance of the object
dimmed and the size diminished. Detachment Commander, Airman Dedrick,
states he was informed by Reno Filter Center that Mater(?) Radar and
another radar site, identity unknown, made radar contact with the UFOB. |
