Project 10073 Record Card — S Weymouth Naval Station, 13 December 1957

This document consists of a Project 10073 record card and associated teletype communications regarding a UFO sighting reported on December 13, 1957, at the South Weymouth Naval Station in New Jersey. The witness reported observing a blue, ball-shaped object with a bright light that traveled in a straight line from the southeast to the northwest before vanishing instantly. The duration of the observation was recorded as two seconds. The report was processed by the Air Technical Intelligence Center (ATIC). The investigating personnel expressed significant frustration with the quality of the report, noting that it lacked critical data such as size, elevation, azimuth, and wind information, which rendered a proper analysis impossible. Despite these deficiencies, the official conclusion reached by the evaluating agency was that the object could possibly be a meteor. The documentation includes teletype headers indicating the report was distributed to various military commands, including the 762nd Aircraft Control and Warning Squadron, the Air Defense Command, and the 26th Air Division. The report is signed by Lieutenant Commander Robert A. Watt.
