Summary

In November 1956, a witness in Linda Vista, California, observed two sky objects that shimmered in colors changing between red, green, blue, and white. They were described as star-shaped objects the size of a dime. The sighting occurred at 7:00 PM local time, and the witness noted the objects were still visible when the report was filed. Although the observation was recorded, investigators concluded there was insufficient data to determine if they were balloons, aircraft, astronomical phenomena, or something else.

The case was documented on a Project 10073 record card, a Cold War-era air intelligence program. There were no photographs or radar data involved, and the report was sent to several military units and intelligence centers for analysis. Despite the detailed description from the witness, the lack of additional data prevented a definitive classification. Cases like this, though unresolved, are valuable for understanding how UFO sightings were handled in the 1950s.
