AI-Generated Summary

TL;DR

A government employee reported two stationary, baseball-sized, white or silver discs over Oklahoma City for over an hour. Official investigation concluded there was insufficient data to identify the objects, suggesting they may have been sun reflections.

This document is a Project 10073 record card and associated teletype correspondence regarding a UFO sighting in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, on July 18, 1958. The primary witness, a 38-year-old United States Government employee working for the CAA in Flight Facilities Inspection, reported observing two white or silver, round, disc-shaped objects, each approximately the size of a baseball. The objects were sighted at an estimated altitude of 10,000 to 15,000 feet. The witness reported that the objects remained stationary for one hour and fifteen minutes before disappearing without any apparent movement. The sighting occurred during daylight hours, and the witness noted that no sound was heard. Two aircraft were observed approaching from the west approximately 30 seconds after the objects disappeared. The report includes weather data, noting clear conditions with a haze layer topped at 25,000 feet. Official analysis concluded that there was insufficient data to identify the objects, with investigators noting that the report lacked specific directional, bearing, and elevation data. A marginal note suggests the possibility that the objects were sun reflections through the haze layer, a theory supported by the presence of scattered clouds and haze in the area.
