1966 UFO Sighting in Alto Tennessee

Summary

In April 1966, a witness in Alto, Tennessee, observed an unidentified object for over two hours. The UFO appeared oval when stationary, resembling a basketball at arm's length. When moving, it took a conical shape with a bright yellow-orange lower part, a darker upper section, and a white horizontal streak. The witness reported a high-frequency noise and noted the object moved parallel to high-voltage power lines before turning south. Livestock and dogs reacted to the object, adding to the mystery.

The official report, part of Project Blue Book, includes testimonies from three individuals, including a student and a truck driver. Despite using a telescope and Geiger counters, no conventional explanations were found. The detailed description of the UFO and the animal reactions remain unexplained. This case, marked as "unidentified," continues to intrigue researchers and UFO enthusiasts.
