Project 10073 Record Card — Bitter Creek, Wyoming, 15 August 1956

This document is a Project 10073 record card detailing a UFO sighting that occurred on August 15, 1956, near Bitter Creek, Wyoming. The report indicates that a civilian witness observed two objects described as yellow and red in color and oblong in shape. The objects were reported to have orbited for approximately 30 minutes before disappearing. The record card explicitly notes that there were no photos taken and no radar contact established during the event. The official conclusion reached by the evaluating agency, ATIC, was that there was insufficient data for a proper evaluation. Handwritten notes on the document highlight the lack of specific information regarding bearings, elevations, features, and meteorological conditions at the time of the sighting. The file includes a teletype message from the 789th AC&W Squadron to various military commands, including the 20th Air Division and the Air Technical Intelligence Center (ATIC), confirming the report was being processed as a UFO sighting. Additional handwritten annotations on the document suggest that the report was considered incomplete, with remarks such as 'Pertinent & Basic data necessary to properly evaluate is missing - not given' and 'No data as to specific bearings, elevations, features, wind and weather conditions, etc.'
