This document consists of a Project 10073 record card, a personal letter from a witness, and a press clipping regarding a sighting on April 27, 1962. The witness, Mrs. Fred Harris of Burt, Michigan, reported observing a brilliant green fireball with a tail at approximately 9:15 p.m. The object appeared to be half the size of the full moon and was followed by a second, slightly smaller green ball of fire, also with a tail. The witness noted that the objects skimmed just above the tree line and were traveling at a speed significantly faster than an airplane. The official Air Force evaluation concluded that the sighting was a meteor, citing a local report from Burt, Michigan, that indicated a meteor sighting at 2105, which the investigators determined correlated with the witness's observation.
The witness said they were traveling 'much faster than a plane.'
