Summary

In July 1965, a witness in Covina, California, reported observing two unidentified flying objects. The objects appeared like large burning matches, separating from each other at high speed. They were estimated to be traveling at around 2000 mph and remained visible for 20 minutes. One moved southwest and the other northeast. Although the witness described their appearance, no details about their size, shape, or color were provided. The objects disappeared by fading out of sight.

The Air Force concluded that the data was conflicting. Although initially considered as meteors or satellites, the duration of the observation and the description did not align with these explanations. Ultimately, it was suggested they could have been jet aircraft with afterburners. However, a 20-minute observation is unusual for aerial objects. The case was classified as conflicting data, and no further investigation was conducted.
