Stationary UFO with Flashes in Illinois

Summary

A man from DesPlaines, Illinois, observed an object moving slowly westward before stopping near Arcturus. For 5-7 minutes, it remained stationary before emitting a series of brief flashes to the south. The witness, Roy C. Ingersoll, described how the object appeared like a satellite or star, but its unusual behavior intrigued him. Despite observing it for over an hour, no further changes occurred. The report concludes it might be an astronomical phenomenon, but a more mysterious explanation isn't ruled out.
