Summary

In July 1947, at Harmon Air Base in Newfoundland, a UFO case was recorded with several photographs. The images show an unidentified object observed during a flight. Although multiple photos were taken, only one is clear and shows a round shape with lights. The report includes technical details such as distance and time of the sighting. The document, now declassified, does not provide a clear conclusion about the nature of the object.

The case includes repeated annotations indicating contact occurred at 10:25. Despite a distance of 2000 feet mentioned, only a 2-foot deviation was recorded. This suggests the object was very close or measurements were limited. The report also includes a graphical scale and a description of the object as a "flying saucer," though it notes it could be a hoax. Despite the lack of definitive conclusions, the case remains an intriguing piece of UFO history.
