Project 10073 Record Card — Brooklyn, New York, 6 February 1961

This document consists of a Project 10073 Record Card and a follow-up letter regarding an unidentified aerial phenomenon reported in Brooklyn, New York, on the morning of February 6, 1961. The record card indicates that the observation was a ground-visual sighting by a civilian. Because the initial report lacked sufficient detail to reach a formal conclusion, the Air Force initiated a standard follow-up procedure. On February 8, 1961, Captain William M. Mack of the Public Information Division, Office of Information, sent a letter to the witness. In this correspondence, Captain Mack informed the witness that their report contained insufficient information for a valid evaluation. He requested that the witness complete an attached Air Force questionnaire and forward it to the Commander of the Aerospace Technical Intelligence Center at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio. The record card subsequently notes that the questionnaire was forwarded to the witness, but it was never returned. Consequently, the case was closed with the official conclusion of 'Insufficient Data for Evaluation.' The documentation provides no specific details regarding the appearance, behavior, or characteristics of the object sighted, as the investigation was halted due to the lack of further witness cooperation.
