TL;DR

A civilian reported two slow-moving, flashing objects near Neah Bay, Washington, on 20 September 1954. Military intercept attempts failed to locate the objects, and no radar contact was established.

This document is a Project 10073 record detailing a civilian sighting of unidentified aerial phenomena that occurred on 20 September 1954 near Neah Bay, Washington. The report describes two small, round objects that were observed for over two hours. These objects were noted to be flashing red, white, and green lights and exhibited very slow movement, estimated at two to four knots at an altitude of 7,200 feet. The report explicitly states that there was no formation and no radar pickup associated with the objects. Military authorities attempted an intercept with two aircraft, but they were unable to make visual contact with the objects. The official conclusion provided in the record suggests that the positional data did not support the sighting characteristics of a star or planet, though the document itself is categorized under a project typically associated with the investigation of such phenomena. The report includes technical details such as the time of the sighting (21/0435Z) and references to Air Force regulations (AFL 200-5) regarding the reporting of such incidents. The documentation consists of a standard form and a teletype transmission summarizing the event for higher headquarters, including the Air Technical Intelligence Center at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base.
