This document consists of a Project 10073 record card and an associated teletype message regarding an aerial sighting on December 3, 1958, over St. Lawrence Island, Alaska. A member of the Alaska National Guard reported observing an object at 0150Z. The witness described hearing a sound and seeing an object shining through the overcast sky for approximately five seconds. The object was noted to have a lighted trail and was traveling in a northeasterly direction before disappearing into the clouds. A second report from the Alaska National Guard at Gambell, St. Lawrence Island, corroborated the event, describing a lighted trail at a very high altitude traveling east. The official conclusion recorded on the card is that the object was an astronomical meteor. The teletype, addressed to various military commands including the Commander of the Alaskan Air Command and the Air Technical Intelligence Center (ATIC), explicitly references 'Moon Dust' in relation to the reports, suggesting the incident was processed under that specific intelligence program.
