UFO seen over Seattle in 1947

Summary

In June 1947, a classified report under project 10073 recorded the observation of an unidentified flying object over Seattle, Washington. Although the document is partially damaged and contains OCR errors, it mentions a brief description of the observation, including the object's course. The report does not provide a clear physical description of the UFO, but suggests that physical evidence was collected. This document is part of the earliest official records of UFO sightings in the United States.

The analysis of the report is limited due to the lack of precise details, but its existence confirms that authorities were already taking note of unidentified aerial phenomena. This type of early record laid the foundation for later investigations, such as Project Blue Book. Although the document does not provide definitive conclusions, its mere presence in military archives reflects early interest in unexplained aerial phenomena.
