UFO sighted in Barstow in 1967

Summary

In 1967, a witness in Barstow, California, reported an unidentified aerial phenomenon that stood out due to its unusual behavior. The object, visually observed from the ground, appeared around 3:10 AM when the star Arcturus was just above the horizon. It was described as changing color from a dull orange to a bright red and moving side to side with sudden right-angle turns. Observers confirmed it was not an optical illusion by checking it against land marks. Although no physical evidence or photos were found, the testimony suggests a clear and detailed experience that did not match conventional objects.
