TL;DR

A 1958 sighting report from Tennessee describes two flashing objects observed through binoculars. The investigation concluded the objects were likely the star Sirius viewed through moving clouds.

This document is a Project 10073 record card detailing a sighting that occurred on May 7, 1958, in Spring City, Tennessee. The witness, a millhand and field supervisor, reported observing two band-shaped objects, described as being the size of a penny, which exhibited red, yellow, and green flashing lights. The observation lasted for 30 minutes and was conducted using binoculars. The witness noted that the objects appeared to remain stationary during the duration of the sighting. The report includes weather data indicating high winds and 30% cloud cover with fast-moving clouds above 10,000 feet. The official conclusion recorded on the card initially marked the event as 'Probably Astronomical,' with handwritten annotations identifying the objects as the star Sirius. The annotations explain that the perceived movement and flashing were likely caused by the star being viewed through fast-moving clouds. Despite the initial administrative note stating that no positive identification could be reached, the final assessment leans heavily toward an astronomical explanation involving Sirius.

Two band shaped objs, size of penny, red-yellow & green, giving flashes. Probably bright star Sirrus as seen thru fast moving douds.
