PROJECT 10073 RECORD CARD — Englewood, Ohio, 22 July 1963

On July 22, 1963, a civilian witness in Englewood, Ohio, reported observing an unidentified aerial phenomenon. The witness described the object as a white, star-like light that appeared to move around in the southwest sky, accompanied by a red flashing light. The observation lasted for approximately ten minutes, during which the object remained in the same general location. The witness noted that the night was dark with no moon, and there was fog or mist in the area. The witness reported no sound associated with the object. Upon investigation by the Air Technical Intelligence Center (ATIC), the phenomenon was evaluated and identified as the star Antares. The report notes that Antares was positioned in the southwest at an elevation of approximately 20 degrees and was the only first-magnitude astronomical body in that part of the sky at the time. The perceived motion and flickering of the object were attributed to the atmospheric conditions, specifically the presence of haze.
