Stationary White UFO Over Ohio in 1955

Summary

A round, white object was observed in the sky over Euclid, Ohio, on May 26, 1955. A civilian witness saw it for four minutes without moving from its position. Although no photos or radar were used, the description suggested a possible explanation as a balloon. Authorities considered it "possibly a balloon," but no definitive conclusion was reached. This case is part of the records from Project 10073, which collected reports of unidentified sightings.

The exact location of the sighting was between 63 and 100 miles northwest of an air reference point, indicating the object was at a considerable altitude. Despite good weather conditions, no further details helped identify the object with certainty. The report was distributed to several military units for analysis, but no further observations or follow-up were recorded.
