AI-Generated Summary
A 1955 sighting report from Salona Beach, California, describes a blue and white light that split into two. The military investigation concluded the object was likely a flare.
This document consists of a UFOB Index Card and a corresponding military teletype report regarding a sighting that occurred on January 12, 1955, at Salona Beach, California. The observation, which lasted approximately 20 seconds, involved a single object described as an oblong, blue and white light, roughly the size of a pea. The witness reported that the object performed a straight flight before splitting into two. The report explicitly notes that there was no sound associated with the event and that weather conditions were clear. The military report, originating from the 751st ACW Squadron, was transmitted to the Air Defense Command at Ent Air Force Base, the 27th Air Division at Norton AFB, the Air Technical Intelligence Center at Wright-Patterson AFB, and Intelligence Headquarters USAF. The document also notes the presence of jet aircraft overhead going north and an airliner going south, both on airway Amber One, though these appear to be contextual observations rather than the primary subject of the report. The final conclusion recorded on the index card suggests the phenomenon was 'possibly a flare.'
