Summary

In July 1953, a U.S. Air Force officer at the air traffic control tower at Washington Airport observed two unidentified flying objects. The objects appeared one above the other, shining intensely and were larger than stars. The first disappeared at 19:35 and the second at 19:43 Eastern Standard Time. The witness noted that the objects resembled stars but were much closer and larger. Due to a technical malfunction, he couldn't take photographs. The description suggests the objects were not conventional and generated curiosity about their behavior.

The report details the location, time, and characteristics of the objects, including their brightness and disappearance. Although no physical evidence was found, the officer's testimony, while on active duty, adds credibility to the report. The Air Force classified the case as unresolved, reflecting uncertainty about its origin.
