Bright UFO seen in Cincinnati in 1961

Summary

A shiny white object was sighted in Cincinnati, Ohio, in 1961. A witness described a bright object with depth moving from south to north. Although balloon or reflection possibilities were considered, investigators concluded it was an aircraft. The object faded from view without leaving traces or sounds. The witness, a 37-year-old man, didn't take photos or use optical instruments, but accurately described the direction and appearance of the object. The lack of additional data limited the evaluation, but the presence of multiple aircraft in the area suggested a conventional explanation.
