PROJECT 10073 RECORD CARD - High Springs, Florida - 3 February 1957

This document consists of a Project 10073 record card and associated teletype communications regarding an unidentified aerial phenomenon reported on February 3, 1957, in High Springs, Florida. A Ground Observer Corps (GOC) observer reported a single, round, white light in the sky that moved up, down, right, and left for a duration of three hours and two minutes. The sky conditions were noted as having 3/5 broken cloud coverage. The official evaluation concluded that the phenomenon was not an anomalous object but rather a ground-based light source, specifically a searchlight or a ceiling projector used at a nearby airport, reflecting off the broken cloud layer. This conclusion was supported by an operations officer who specifically identified the source as a reflection from a ceiling-measuring light at Cross City Airport. The documentation includes internal military routing information between various Air Force commands, including the Air Defense Command and the Air Technical Intelligence Center, confirming the administrative handling of the report.
