Spherical UFO over Cincinnati in 1956

Summary

In March 1956, a witness in Cincinnati, Ohio, reported seeing a round, lightless object that remained stationary in the sky. The sighting, documented under Project 10073, lacked photographs and sufficient data for a conclusive evaluation. The observation was made visually from the ground, and the object showed no movement or light emissions. Due to the lack of information, investigators concluded they could not determine its nature with certainty.

The report was shared with several military units, including the Wright-Patterson Field Service Center and the Air Defense Command. Despite official attention, no clear explanation emerged. The object did not fit into typical categories such as balloons, aircraft, or astronomical phenomena. This case remains one of the unresolved mysteries in the UFO archive from that era.
