Summary

In July 1958, a witness in Seoul, Korea, observed a mysterious object in the sky. It was a yellowish round ball that appeared very high and maintained a steady course toward the east for two minutes before disappearing. The report does not include photographs, but the witness described it clearly. Although several explanations were considered, such as balloons or aircraft, no definitive confirmation was reached. The lack of additional data made an accurate evaluation difficult.

The report was reviewed by intelligence officers, who noted the absence of military or civilian records that could explain the phenomenon. The possibility of a weather balloon launched by the 30th Weather Squadron was mentioned, but no conclusive evidence was found. The case remains unsolved, adding a touch of mystery to this sighting from over sixty years ago.
