Project 10073 Record Card — Little Neck, New York, July 1958

This document consists of a Project 10073 record card and associated correspondence regarding a UFO sighting reported in 1963, which allegedly occurred in July 1958 in Little Neck, New York. The witness, who was 12 years old at the time of the event, reported observing approximately 20 objects flying in a V-formation, similar to ducks, moving from the East to the SouthEast. The witness described the objects as glowing and stated that they eventually broke formation and disappeared. The witness reported no sound during the event and estimated the altitude at 40,000 feet. The Air Force investigation, conducted via the Air Technical Intelligence Center (ATIC), formally categorized the report as 'unreliable' due to the five-year delay in reporting. The documentation includes a standard U.S. Air Force Technical Information Sheet completed by the witness, who identified themselves as a student at Thomas A. Edison technical school. The correspondence from the Office of the Assistant Secretary of Defense to the Director of Information, USAF, dated March 14, 1963, indicates that the report was forwarded for consideration, though no further action was requested. The final assessment on the record card marks the incident as having insufficient data for evaluation.
