Green fireball UFO over Hudson Strait

Summary

A 1960 military report describes the observation of an object with a bright green tail over the Hudson Strait in Canada. Witnesses reported a phenomenon similar to a fireball moving rapidly from east to west. The sighting lasted between 1 and 2 seconds, and although various explanations such as a balloon or meteor were considered, no definitive conclusion was reached. The report, under Project 10073, includes radar data and visual accounts, but the data was deemed insufficient for a conclusive evaluation.

The lack of clear evidence and the ephemeral nature of the phenomenon led analysts to rule out conventional explanations. Although a comet was suggested, the object's description and behavior did not fully align with known astronomical records. The final report concludes that no probable cause was identified, leaving open the possibility of an unusual or undocumented event.
