Summary

In September 1956, a witness in Freeport, Michigan, reported a round object the size of a silver dollar, with colors ranging from silver to red to yellow. The object appeared at 270 degrees with a 45-degree elevation. Although the observer claimed to have seen similar objects before, he could not determine its speed or exact direction. The report, part of Project 10073, concluded that there was insufficient data to evaluate the sighting.

The report notes that the Sun was at a 35-degree elevation and in the 240-degree direction, suggesting the object was near the Sun. Additionally, a friend of the observer in Hastings, Michigan, also saw it around 14:30. Both calculated that the object might be over the Pacific. However, there were no photos or radar confirmation, and the case remains unresolved.
