🇺🇸 USAF — Project Blue Book
In July 1960, a witness in Brookville, Long Island, observed three luminous objects moving in a triangular formation. They described the objects as having a pearly color and moving at an extremely high speed, surpassing that of a fighter jet. One of them separated from the group and ascended vertically. The witness noted that the objects were seen for about two minutes, maintaining a consistent formation before changing direction. The account includes details about their position in the sky, elevation, and heading, suggesting a careful and attentive observation.
The U.S. Air Force responded to the sighting by requesting more information through a detailed questionnaire. The responsible officer, a lieutenant colonel, noted that the provided data was insufficient for a conclusive evaluation. The witness, along with another person who also saw the objects, was invited to complete the questionnaire to provide further details. The testimony includes a description of the objects' appearance, behavior, and the context of the sighting, reflecting an experience that generated curiosity and the need for further investigation.
