White UFO observed in Astoria 1964

Summary

In April 1964, a Coast Guard officer in Astoria, Oregon, reported a sighting of a bright object with flashing lights. The object was seen through a telescope and described as larger than an aircraft. It moved slowly from east to west, flashing red and green lights. Despite multiple attempts at identification, no clear explanation was found. Visibility was partly cloudy and weather conditions did not account for the phenomenon.
