Summary

In October 1957, a witness near Kerhonkson, New York, reported an object resembling a star, yellow in color with jagged edges. The object faded and reappeared just above the horizon. Although no photos were taken and precise data was lacking, investigators concluded the information was insufficient for a clear evaluation. The possibility of it being a star or even Comet Encke was considered, but could not be confirmed.

The report, part of Project 10073, was classified as "insufficient for evaluation." The witness did not provide details about the duration of the sighting, further complicating the investigation. Despite these limitations, the case remains interesting due to its detailed visual description and the precise location of the sighting. At the time, such reports were common, but few achieved a clear resolution.
