UFO Sighted Over Ludington Michigan in 1949

Summary

In April 1949, two teenagers in Ludington, Michigan, reported seeing an unidentified flying object that resembled a comet with a tail. The white object was traveling west and disappeared over Lake Michigan. According to the witnesses, the sky was clear and the object was clearly visible. The story appeared in the local newspaper, drawing the attention of air authorities.

The U.S. Air Force report, part of Project Grudge, collected testimonies and photographs of the events. Although various possibilities were investigated, no definitive conclusion was reached.
