Radar UFO at 3000 mph near Guadalupe

Summary

In 1951, a radar detected an object moving at 3000 mph near the island of Guadalupe. The report, classified under Project 10073, notes that the radar target appeared for 15 minutes with no visual sighting. Several explanations were considered: interference from another radar, abnormal weather conditions, or even a balloon. The vessel that recorded the event was a submarine, and the radar was functioning normally. The target approached the ship, followed a curved path, and then disappeared. The calculated speed was extremely high, raising doubts about its nature. Although conventional objects were ruled out, no definitive conclusion was reached.
