UFO sighted in Maryland in 1963

Summary

In May 1963, a witness in Ocean City, Maryland, reported a bright object in the sky that appeared to move in an unusual manner. The report, part of Project 10073, details that the object did not show characteristics of a satellite or a balloon, and was not identified as an aircraft. The witness described the object as having a bright white color and not emitting any sound. Although several explanations were considered, such as conventional aircraft or balloons, none were confirmed definitively.

The document includes detailed questions about the observation, such as duration, exact location, and weather conditions. The witness could not determine the distance or speed of the object with precision, but noted that it did not behave like a known celestial body. The report also asks the witness to describe the object with drawings and to provide personal information for potential follow-up. Despite the Air Force's efforts to obtain more details, the case remains unresolved.
