TL;DR

A civilian witness reported four circular, pink objects moving rapidly over Pequannock, New Jersey, on May 22, 1963. The Air Force investigated the report and concluded the objects were likely reflections, officially classifying the incident as 'UNIDENTIFIED'.

On May 22, 1963, a female witness in Pequannock, New Jersey, observed four circular, pink objects moving rapidly from East to West. The witness, a former military reservist with experience in plane recognition, reported that the objects appeared to be the size of a large truck or tractor wheel if viewed from nearby. Each object was visible for approximately one second, with the entire sighting lasting about two minutes. The witness noted that the objects were spaced about half a minute apart and exhibited no trail, tail, or exhaust. She further described the objects as appearing to spin or roll. The witness was alone at the time of the observation and did not report the matter to anyone else immediately. The report was forwarded by the 161st Air Transport Wing to the Air Force Systems Command (Foreign Technology Division) at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in accordance with Air Force Regulation 200-2. The official evaluation concluded that the objects were likely reflections from an internal source rather than solid, exterior objects. Due to insufficient data to confirm the analysis, the case was officially classified as 'UNIDENTIFIED,' with the note that there was no indication of a threat to the United States or any scientific potential in the data provided.

No info in the case indicates threat to U.S. nor is any indication of scientific potential in the data presented.
