Bright UFO observed in Colorado Springs

Summary

In October 1966, a witness in Colorado Springs observed a bright white object for nearly an hour. The round object appeared to emit flashes and remained visible even after the observer went back to bed. Although the investigating officer noted there was a full moon at the time, no clear conclusion was reached about the nature of the phenomenon. The object's description did not match known satellites or conventional aircraft, leaving the case unresolved.

The official report indicated there was insufficient information for evaluation. Details such as the round shape, brilliant white color, and unusual behavior of the object were recorded. Despite the observer using binoculars and the object being visible for an hour, there was no physical evidence or photographs to help identify it. As with many other cases, this one was filed without a conclusive explanation.
