UFO sighted in Phoenix in 1967

Summary

A 12-year-old boy reported in 1967 having observed a luminous object moving rapidly across the sky in Phoenix, Arizona. The witness described how the object, which appeared to be a meteor, blinked three times before disappearing. Although initially considered a possible meteor, investigators noted that the duration and trajectory did not match typical natural phenomena. The lack of precise data, such as exact observation time and trajectory details, made a conclusive evaluation difficult.

Responses from astronomical experts suggested the phenomenon could be explained as a meteor, with variations in brightness possibly due to atmospheric conditions or the observer's perspective. Contacting the witness for more information was recommended, but no physical investigation was conducted. The case was archived without a definitive resolution, highlighting the importance of precise data in UFO investigations.
