TL;DR

A 1964 UFO sighting report from Westford, Massachusetts, involving five objects observed over eight hours. The report was submitted to NICAP but officially classified as unreliable.

This document is a collection of reports and correspondence regarding a UFO sighting in Westford, Massachusetts, on or about September 6, 1964. The primary report, documented by NICAP investigator Raymond E. Fowler, details an observation involving five objects: one 'mother ship' and four smaller craft. The witness, identified as a local resident, claimed the objects were visible for approximately eight hours, performing various maneuvers. The objects were described as having red and white lights that blinked alternately, with the smaller ships featuring a single pulsating light on the bottom. The witness estimated the size of the larger object to be equivalent to a dollar bill held at arm's length. The sighting was interviewed by subcommittee member Donald Moyers. Despite the detailed account provided by the witness, the official conclusion recorded on the summary sheet is that the report is 'UNRELIABLE' and the witness is 'regarded as unreliable.' The document also includes a cover letter from Raymond E. Fowler to the National Investigations Committee on Aerial Phenomena (NICAP) in Washington, D.C., dated April 11, 1965, submitting this and other sighting data for the organization's files. The correspondence is copied to Walter Webb and the USAF (AFSC, FTD).
