UFO with lights over Winnipeg in 1955

Summary

In October 1955, a witness in Winnipeg, Manitoba, reported an object with flashing lights moving rapidly northward. The observers, a civilian doctor and a control tower operator, described red, green, and orange lights that blinked in an unusual pattern. Although they could not determine the object's shape, they noted the lights were about the size of a matchhead. The phenomenon lasted for one hour and fifteen minutes, indicating a prolonged and detailed observation.

The official conclusion pointed to Arcturus, a bright star visible in the night sky. However, the description of the lights and their rapid movement raised doubts. Despite attempts to identify the object with a T-33 jet, the result was negative. The lack of physical evidence and the inability to photograph the phenomenon left many questions unanswered. This case remains an unresolved mystery in the history of UFO sightings.
