AI-Generated Summary
A military tower operator at Greenville AFB reported a large, glowing object in the sky on June 18, 1960. The official military assessment concluded the object was a meteor.
On June 18, 1960, at 0328Z, T/Sgt Roy H. Wubker, a tower operator with the 2022-1 AACS Detachment at Greenville AFB, Mississippi, observed an unidentified aerial object. The object was described as a very large yellow ball with a broken tail featuring a green fringe. As the object traveled from east to west, descending at an angle of approximately 075 degrees, it shifted to a bright yellow-white color before burning out as it approached the horizon. The incident was formally reported by the Commander of the 3505 PLT THGWG to the Chief of Staff of the USAF, WPAFB, and LG Hanscom Field. The report was cross-referenced with Project Space Track and Project Moondust. Despite the observer's assertion that the object appeared different from the many meteors he had previously witnessed, the official conclusion recorded on the Project 10073 record card is that the description is typical of a meteor.
