Summary

In May 1966, a witness in New Bedford, Massachusetts, reported observing an unidentified flying object for 10 minutes. However, the report lacked essential details such as the exact date, time, and a detailed description of the phenomenon. This limited the ability of investigators to conduct a thorough analysis. The report also mentions that the official form was never returned, further complicating the evaluation.

The Air Force responded to the witness by providing a form to complete and a copy of the Project Blue Book brochure, which explained the military's efforts to investigate unidentified objects. Although the case was deemed to lack sufficient data for a conclusive evaluation, the witness was thanked for their report. This document reflects the methodology of the time, where the lack of detailed information was common and often prevented reaching firm conclusions.
