TL;DR

A 1963 UFO sighting in New Jersey by Michael J. Campione was reported to Project Blue Book. The Air Force officially concluded the object was a meteor, despite the witness's detailed description of a wing-like, glowing green craft.

This document contains a Project Blue Book record card and associated correspondence regarding a UFO sighting reported by Michael J. Campione on December 13, 1963, in Cinnaminson, New Jersey. Mr. Campione, identified as a member of APRO, submitted a detailed questionnaire and a sketch of the object. He described the object as an elongated teardrop shape, glowing with a light green phosphorescent color, which he compared to 'spring green' crayon. The object featured two wing-like projections with stubby wingtip fuel tanks but lacked a tail assembly. According to the witness, the object traveled from the WNW to the SSE at an estimated altitude of 3,000 feet, lasting approximately 3 to 4 seconds, and made no noise. The witness noted that the object was brighter than moonlight and disappeared suddenly. The official conclusion recorded on the Project 10073 record card is that the sighting was a 'probable meteor observation.' The correspondence includes letters from the Amalgamated Flying Saucer Clubs of America, Inc., requesting technical information forms and guidance on verifying sightings with local radar installations to distinguish between genuine sightings and hoaxes.

The shape of the UFO was that of an elongated teardrop. Two narrow wing-like projections extended out from either side of the fuselage in the same relative position as wings on a conventional aircraft.
