UFO seen as flying wing near Florida in 1953

Summary

In January 1953, a civilian employee at Patrick Air Force Base in Florida observed an unidentified flying object resembling a flying wing. The witness, considered reliable, described an object without a fuselage, with blue lights on its lower surface, and moving at high speed at low altitude. The object appeared suddenly and disappeared within 2-3 seconds, without making any sound. The observation occurred in a cold, clear environment with little wind, allowing for a clear view. The witness compared the object to a B-36 but noted it was smaller and had a distinctive shape.

The official investigation concluded it could be a meteor or an optical illusion, though the possibility of an unknown object was not ruled out. The witness's description, along with his experience in air travel and knowledge of aircraft, adds credibility to his testimony. However, the lack of physical evidence or photographs leaves the case in a state of uncertainty.
