Flickering light in Fairborn Ohio

Summary

In April 1968, a witness in Fairborn, Ohio reported seeing a flashing light that turned white at one point. The report, part of the U.S. Air Force's Project Blue Book, notes that the description of the event was given in a fragmented and sometimes conflicting manner. Despite attempts to obtain more details from the observer, no additional information was obtained. The report concludes that there was insufficient data for a conclusive evaluation, but the testimony was considered part of the efforts to understand unidentified aerial phenomena.

The object was observed for about 15 minutes, and although the witness did not provide photos or physical evidence, their testimony was recorded. The Air Force requested the witness to complete a detailed questionnaire to assess the sighting, but no further information was obtained. This case, like many others, reflects the difficulty of obtaining concrete data on unidentified flying object sightings.
