Summary

A round white object was reported over the Pacific Ocean in February 1961. It was seen at 11:05 local time, at an altitude of 50 meters, moving slowly towards the southeast. Weather conditions were ideal: calm seas and clear skies. The report does not include photos or precise observation duration, which limits any conclusive analysis. The exact location is in the Pacific Ocean, near coordinates 9°36N 145°15W.

The report suggests it could have been a satellite or a meteor, but the lack of details like the sighting duration makes it hard to identify. The data is insufficient to determine if it was a balloon, an aircraft, or an astronomical phenomenon. The official conclusion was that there was not enough information to make a valid assessment. This case is an example of how the lack of details can lead to uncertainty, even in official reports.
