UFO sighted in Folsom in 1964

Summary

In July 1964, an Aerojet employee in Folsom, California, reported seeing a bright white object, similar to a satellite, the size of a pea. The object was observed for several minutes, moving in a straight line overhead before disappearing over the horizon. The incident occurred around 21:45 on July 31. The person contacted local authorities and notified several units, including Base Operations, ISO, and the SAMA Command Post. Although no physical evidence was found, the report details the observation and notification process.

This case, though unresolved, is another example of the numerous UFO sightings recorded in the 1960s. The official report, though brief, shows how authorities treated these incidents with some seriousness, notifying multiple departments. Despite the lack of concrete evidence, the employee's testimony was documented and archived, as part of the efforts to understand and record unexplained aerial phenomena.
