Project 10073 Record Card — Macon, Georgia, 10 September 1962

This document is a Project 10073 record card and associated U.S. Air Force Technical Information Sheet detailing a sighting that occurred on September 10, 1962, in Macon, Georgia. A civilian witness reported observing a yellow, solid object at 21:41 EST. The object was described as a dot streaking across the sky, moving from East to West at an elevation of 35 degrees. The duration of the sighting was approximately 1.25 seconds. The witness was looking North at the time of the event. The weather was reported as clear and dry. The report was filed by Major L.R. Burkett, the WRAMA Staff Duty Officer, and processed by Captain Edward C. James, an FTD Duty Officer. The official conclusion reached by the Air Technical Intelligence Center (ATIC) was that the limited data indicated a possible meteor sighting. The documentation includes a note stating that the questionnaire was incomplete because the reporting officer did not have the full form available at the time of the initial report, though the officer provided a brief summary of the event.
