Project 10073 Record Card — Glenview, Illinois, 31 August 1960

This document consists of a Project 10073 record card and a corresponding internal memorandum from the Aerospace Technical Intelligence Center at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, dated 1 September 1960. The records document a UFO sighting reported by a civilian woman to the Navy at Glenview, Illinois, on 31 August 1960 at 0430Z. The witness described the object as cylindrical, illuminated, and red in color. She reported that the object was moving in a northeasterly direction at an altitude of approximately 1000 feet. The witness further characterized the object's behavior as uncontrolled and noted that it was extremely loud, though it produced no smoke or exhaust. The report was initially processed by the Navy and subsequently extracted by Captain Deranian for the Aerospace Technical Intelligence Center. The official conclusion recorded on the project card is that there was insufficient data available to conduct a formal evaluation of the sighting. The memorandum from Captain John C. McNeill to Major Friend confirms that no further action was taken regarding this report.
