UFO seen in Belfast, Maine in 1958

Summary

In June 1958, a UFO sighting was reported in Belfast, Maine, and documented in a declassified file. The report, though brief, mentions an observation in the Northport area, noting the object was seen on July 14 of that year. Despite the lack of specific details about the object's appearance or witnesses, the document reflects official interest in unidentified aerial phenomena during the Cold War. This type of record, often incomplete, is valuable for understanding how authorities handled UFO reports at the time.

The file belongs to the Foreign Technology Division of the Air Force, suggesting the case was reviewed in the context of potential technological threats. However, there are no indications that a clear explanation was found for the sighting. These documents, now public, allow researchers and enthusiasts to reconstruct part of the history of UFOs in the United States.
