Bright UFO over Jebal Lebanon 1963

Summary

In April 1963, a group of professors in Jebal, Lebanon, observed a very bright object flying at high altitude. The object moved quickly and made abrupt directional changes, causing confusion about its nature. Although initially considered a balloon or astronomical phenomenon, the data did not allow a clear conclusion. The lack of sound and maneuverability suggested it was not a conventional aircraft.

The official investigation concluded it was an aircraft, but witnesses insisted the movements were too fast for a conventional plane. The report contains contradictions and requests more data, but no satisfactory explanation was found. This case remains one of the unresolved UFO mysteries.
