UFO seen near California coast

Summary

A ground observer spotted an unidentified flying object near the California coast in July 1966. The report, classified under number P63 0-329 (TDE), describes a luminous object observed for about 12 to 15 seconds. Although no photos were taken and no physical evidence was found, the observer's account suggests a clear and brief encounter with an unusual aerial phenomenon.

The report notes that the object was seen from the ground and no other witnesses were reported.
