Summary

In September 1952, a 62-year-old woman reported seeing luminous objects in Newport Beach, California. According to the report, the objects appeared twice, at 2:35 and 4:07 in the morning, with a sound like a soft breeze. The first sighting showed eleven to fifteen objects in formation, while the second showed only one. Both were directly overhead and moving in a straight line from north to south. Despite the witness reporting the incident, there was no official investigation by the authorities.

The description of the objects as luminous and in formation led to theories such as migratory birds, but no physical evidence was found. The report, though incomplete and with transcription errors, reflects the confusion and lack of action by the military authorities at the time. This case, like many others, was lost in time, unresolved and without further follow-up.
