UFO sighted in Tallahassee in 1967

Summary

A 16-year-old in Tallahassee, Florida, reported an object in the sky in November 1967. He observed it for about 15 minutes, from 7:00 to 7:15 PM. The object resembled an elongated star with blurred edges, brighter than the dimmest stars but not as bright as the brightest ones. It made no noise and moved in an unusual way, not following a straight path. The witness used binoculars to observe it and estimated it was faster than expected for something so small. His mother and brother also saw it. The report includes a drawing of the phenomenon, though its exact shape is not specified.

The Air Force report did not gather enough information for a scientific analysis. The witness was asked to complete a detailed questionnaire, including details about location, time, direction, and appearance of the object. Although the witness described the phenomenon as a bright and mysterious object, no clear terrestrial cause, such as planes or satellites, was identified. The case was filed without a conclusive explanation.
