AI-Generated Summary
A June 1947 sighting in Hamburg, New York, of a crate-shaped object with rainbow colors. ATIC investigators concluded the object was possibly an aircraft.
This document is a Project 10073 record detailing a civilian sighting of an unidentified aerial object in Hamburg, New York, during June 1947. The witness reported observing a single object, described as being shaped like a 'crate' and appearing 'fairly small.' The observation occurred at sunset. The object was noted for its 'rainbow' colors, which it retained even after changing its position, leading the observer to conclude it was not simply reflecting the sunset. The object traveled on a northerly course at an altitude described as 'not too high.' Its speed was estimated to be faster than an aircraft. A notable aspect of the report is the witness's observation that while there was no visible means of propulsion, the object did not appear to 'drift.' The official conclusion recorded by the Air Technical Intelligence Center (ATIC) was that the object was 'Possibly A/C' (aircraft). The report confirms that no photographs were taken and no physical evidence was recovered.
