Red UFO over Silver Springs 1965

Summary

In September 1965, a civilian in Silver Springs, Maryland, reported seeing an unidentified flying object displaying reddish and yellow lights. The witness described the object as brighter than Jupiter and observed it for about 20 minutes. Although no photos were taken and no physical evidence was found, the report details the object's description and trajectory. The Foreign Technology Division (FTD) concluded it was likely an aircraft with warning lights, given the duration and flight characteristics similar to an airplane. However, a specific identification wasn't possible due to the lack of radar data in the area.
