Project 10073 Record Card and Correspondence — Speedway, Indiana, April 1963

This document file contains a Project 10073 record card and associated correspondence regarding a UFO sighting reported in Speedway, Indiana, on April 22, 1963. The witness described a round, disc-shaped object approximately 100 feet in diameter with a red glow, ports along the side, and a dome on top. The object reportedly hovered at an altitude of 200-225 feet for three minutes without making any sound, though the witness noted heat emanating from it. The object then reportedly shot away and disappeared in seconds. The witness later claimed that their father had observed the object and identified it as an aircraft. The official evaluation by the Foreign Technology Division concluded the object was an aircraft, despite noting inconsistencies in the report regarding the object's rapid departure and the witness's later identification. Because the sighting was not reported until June 29, 1963, the Air Force determined the report was too old to warrant a formal investigation.
