Cigar-shaped UFO over Cold Spring in 1958

Summary

On December 13, 1958, an unusual object was spotted over Cold Spring, New York. Described as a gold-colored cigar or tube about 20 feet long with two fins on the sides, it emitted a high-pitched sound and orbited over the town before heading south. Although several witnesses saw it, there were no photographs or radar records. The sighting occurred at dusk, under clear weather and good visibility conditions.

Investigators concluded it could be a high-flying aircraft, though no confirmation was given. The report does not mention any follow-up or further sightings. The detailed description of the object and its behavior suggests it could have been an unusual aerial phenomenon, but the lack of concrete data leaves the case uncertain.
