AI-Generated Summary
A high school student reported a bright green light in the sky over Brenham, Texas, on September 5, 1964. The Air Force concluded there was insufficient data to identify the object, suggesting it may have been a meteor.
This document contains a sighting report and a personal letter from a high school student in Brenham, Texas, dated September 5, 1964. The witness, a student of trigonometry and physics, reported that at approximately 11:25 PM, while sitting in a car with a friend about half a mile southwest of Brenham, the entire area was suddenly illuminated by a bright green light. The witness described the light as fading away swiftly by becoming progressively dimmer. The witness, who expressed an interest in UFOs and had studied various cases, offered their own 'Graeber Theory' to explain the phenomenon, suggesting it could be caused by the explosion of stars hundreds of light-years away, with the light only becoming visible upon hitting the Earth's atmosphere. The official military evaluation form (FTD SEP 63 0-329) concludes that there was insufficient data for a definitive evaluation, noting that the object was not observed and that a meteor was a possible cause for the light.
I feel such lights could be caused by the explosion of stars 100s of light years away.
