Project 10073 Record Card — Incident #118
AI-Generated Summary
A civilian scientist reported a fast-moving, silent white light over Berlin on March 28, 1948. Official investigators concluded the data was insufficient to identify the object, noting that a meteor explanation was unlikely.
This document is a Project 10073 record card detailing Incident #118, which occurred on March 28, 1948, in Berlin, Germany. The report describes a sighting of a single, white point of light observed at 1630 hours. According to the witness, who is identified as a civilian scientist, the object traveled from South to North at an approximate altitude of 14 kilometers. The object was noted for its fast speed, lack of sound, and the absence of a trail. The record card includes a brief note suggesting the object was 'probably meteor.' However, a subsequent assessment attached to the file states that the information provided is insufficient to reach a definitive conclusion. It further clarifies that the only potential astronomical explanation—a slow-moving meteor—is considered very unlikely given the reported characteristics. The document is marked as unclassified.
The information given here is insufficient for a definite conclusion to be reached; the only possible astronomical explanation, which would be a slow-moving meteor, is very unlikely.
