Project 10073 Record Card — Rochester, New York, 7 August 1955

This document consists of a Project 10073 record card and an associated military teletype message regarding an unidentified aerial phenomenon reported in Rochester, New York, on August 7, 1955. The sighting involved a single flashing yellow light, which witnesses—identified as a civilian couple—described as being approximately the size of an automobile. The observation lasted for a duration of five minutes. The report was processed in accordance with Air Force Regulation (AFR) 200-2, paragraph 7D. The military communication, sent to various Air Defense commands including the 32nd Air Division at Syracuse and the Air Defense Command at Ent Air Force Base, confirms the details of the report. Despite the documentation, the official conclusion reached by the Air Technical Intelligence Center (ATIC) was that there was insufficient data available to conduct a meaningful evaluation of the incident. The record cards, which include both a standard Project 10073 card and an AISS-UFOB-258-55 index card, consistently note the lack of sufficient information as the primary reason for the inconclusive finding.
