Summary

In 1949, a soldier at Kirtland Air Force Base in New Mexico observed a bright triangular object crossing the sky. The report describes a two-foot-long, white craft moving horizontally at high speed. Although others present didn't see it, the witness claimed it surpassed jet speeds. This case is part of a series of sightings in the region, including green lights and unexplained sounds in Los Alamos.

The official investigation found no conventional explanations, and data suggest the object was neither a meteorite nor a known aircraft. Calculated coordinates point to a specific area, but no terrestrial source was found. Files declassified decades later reflect the uncertainty and rigorous methodology used by investigators at the time.
