Project 10073 Record — Beavercreek, Ohio, 30 October 1964

This document contains a Project 10073 record regarding a UAP sighting in Beavercreek, Ohio, on 30 October 1964. The witness reported observing a stationary, rainbow-colored, fuzzy object for 15 minutes. The object appeared to flash or flicker and did not move. The report includes a completed U.S. Air Force technical information questionnaire, where the witness noted the presence of fog and mist. The case was evaluated by Dr. Allen of the Dearborn Observatory, who concluded that the sighting was likely a 'moondog' (paraselenae), a rare atmospheric phenomenon occurring when the moon is near the horizon. The document also includes correspondence between Sergeant David Moody of the Foreign Technology Division and Dr. Allen, discussing several October 1964 cases. Dr. Allen expressed that the cases were 'ordinary or prosaic' and suggested that the Beaver Creek sighting was almost certainly a moondog. The correspondence also mentions other ongoing investigations, including cases in Massachusetts, California, Oregon, and Ohio, and discusses administrative matters regarding satellite identification and future meetings.
