White and red light over Auburn

Summary

A witness in Auburn, New York, reported a semi-circular white light with a pulsating red light above it. The sighting occurred on February 7, 1969, and lasted three minutes. The observation was made from the ground, and the object was moving northeast. Although photos were taken, no physical evidence was found.

The source of the report is a civilian, and the conclusion suggests a probable aircraft. However, the description of the object doesn't easily match conventional aircraft, keeping some ambiguity in the interpretation. This case is part of the records of Project 10073, which collected reports of unidentified sightings.
