Project 10073 Record Card — Akureyri, Iceland, 26 October 1952

This document consists of a Project 10073 record card and an accompanying intelligence report (IR-747-52) regarding a sighting of unidentified flying objects near Akureyri, Iceland, on 26 October 1952. The report, authored by Captain Milton Radovsky of the 1400th Air Base Group, details an observation made by three civilians. The witnesses reported seeing four or five spherical-shaped objects flying at high speed over the northern coast of Iceland. The objects were observed from two separate locations for a duration of approximately two minutes. According to the report, the objects emitted neither sound nor flame and were clearly visible. Weather conditions at the time were noted as having cloud bases between 600 and 1000 meters with no wind. The information was primarily derived from a newspaper clipping published in the Icelandic newspaper 'Morgunbladid' on 29 October 1952. The report notes that the objects were later seen proceeding north. Due to the nature of the information, which was three days old at the time of the report's filing, it was not transmitted electrically. The official conclusion recorded on the project card is that there was insufficient data for evaluation.
