Witness describes bright object moving and changing color

Summary

A witness reported an aerial phenomenon in Hickory, North Carolina, on November 10, 1968. He saw a white object descending toward the southwest before turning red. The testimony was collected under Project 10073, though there are OCR errors. The observer was not wearing glasses or using binoculars and estimated the object's distance, though not precisely. No noises or physical effects were recorded.

The testimony is brief and lacks many details, but suggests unusual movement and color change. The Air Force could not obtain more information and asked the witness to complete a questionnaire for further investigation.
