UFO seen in Washington and California in 1964

Summary

In July 1964, a witness in Washington reported seeing an object described as a satellite, prompting an official government response. The person, who also mentioned living in Los Angeles, sent a letter requesting precise identification of the object. The official response could not confirm whether it was a known satellite like Echo I or Echo II, or whether it was seen from Washington or California. The geographic coordinates provided suggest the sighting occurred near Wilbur, Washington. Although no photos were taken and no physical evidence was found, the case was categorized as a satellite due to the witness's description. Interestingly, that same week there were reports of other objects in the Los Angeles area, including a yellowish object with "red things" that generated multiple calls to local police stations.
