UFO seen for two years in Dayton, Ohio

Summary

In July 1962, a civilian in Dayton, Ohio, reported observing a luminous object for over two years. The object was described as a bright point in the sky moving slowly westward. The report details multiple sightings over that period, with the object's position changing in a way that matched Jupiter's movement. Although the observer believed it to be a celestial body, authorities concluded it was Jupiter, as Venus and Mars were not visible at the time. The case was classified as astronomical, though other possibilities were not ruled out.

The report includes charts and coordinates showing the object's path. Although no photos were taken, the observer accurately described its location and movement. The investigation concluded there was not enough evidence to classify it as an unidentified aerial phenomenon, but the case remains intriguing due to its duration and the clarity of the observations.
