Summary

In June 1967, two Iowa farmers spotted a white, round object flying northeast. The object was seen for 10 minutes without making noise or leaving a trail. One witness, aged 37, and another, 39, described the sky as completely clear with 15 miles of visibility. Although the report suggested it could be a high-flying aircraft or a satellite, no physical evidence was found. The sighting was recorded by radar and sent to multiple military units.

The object was described as round, white, and without discernible features. Despite the prolonged observation, no sounds or visible emissions were noted. The witnesses, whose reliability was not assessed, agreed on the weather description and the object's straight trajectory. The Air Force concluded there was no conclusive evidence of an unexplained phenomenon, but the report was archived without ruling out the possibility of something unusual.
