UFO Kokomo Indiana 1964

Summary

In May 1964, a witness in Kokomo, Indiana, observed a round white light moving from south to north, decreasing in elevation from 50 to 30 degrees. The sighting lasted between 15 and 20 minutes and was classified as "Ground-Visual". Although several explanations were considered, such as balloon, aircraft, or astronomical phenomenon, no definitive conclusion was reached. The report notes that the sighting coincided with the passage of ECHO 1, suggesting it could have been a satellite or weather balloon. However, the lack of precise data prevented a conclusive evaluation.

The report is part of Project 10073 and was classified as "Insufficient data for evaluation". Despite the witness being a civilian, the case was recorded with precise time and location details. The coordinates mentioned indicate that the object was moving eastward at different altitudes above the horizon. These types of reports, although inconclusive, are valuable for understanding how UFO sightings were handled in the 1960s.
