🇺🇸 USAF — Project Blue Book
In June 1952, a civilian observer in Louisiana reported three elongated, orange and white objects that appeared to be ascending vertically. The sighting described a bright object with a glow around it, resembling a balloon. The report, under Project 10073, concluded the appearance and trajectory were consistent with a balloon, though other possibilities were not ruled out. The response from England AFB included reinterrogation of witnesses, who confirmed the location and direction of the object. No other sightings or suspicious objects were found in the area at the same time.
