Biloxi Mississippi 1957 Sighting of a White Object

Summary

A witness in Biloxi, Mississippi, observed for one hour a round, white object three times the size of a star. The object appeared near the horizon and then descended below it. Although the observer watched it for a long period, no photos were taken and no radar was used. The responsible officer suggested it might have been a bright star, but no definitive conclusion was reached. This case remains intriguing due to the length of the observation and the lack of a clear explanation.
