Summary

In 1947, a witness in Nevada reported an unidentified object at around 1200 feet altitude. The incident occurred near Lovelock, 30 miles west, and was reported by a civilian. Although the object's shape and color are not specified, it is noted that no maneuvers were performed. This document, though brief, is part of the early UFO records in the United States.

The object was observed from a car, suggesting the witness was not actively looking for a UFO. The lack of details like speed or duration of the observation limits the available information, but the fact that it was officially recorded indicates the report was considered relevant at the time. These early records help understand how unexplained aerial phenomena were addressed in the 1940s.
