Round UFO seen in Montrille Ohio in 1957

Summary

A round object the size of a basketball was sighted in Montrille, Ohio, in 1957. The witness described it as initially red, turning to white during the observation. Seen at an altitude of 1000 feet or less, it was moving west at an estimated speed of 200 knots. The sighting lasted two minutes and was later confirmed as an aircraft. Despite the clear description, the object's nature initially caused some confusion, leading to its inclusion in the UFO investigation project of that era.
