AI-Generated Summary
A report of a bright, satellite-like object observed in the Pacific on 28 November 1964. The sighting was deemed to have insufficient data for evaluation after ruling out known satellites.
On 28 November 1964, at 1550Z, a sighting of an unidentified object was reported by the USC GC MATAGORDA in the Pacific region at coordinates 33.55N 164.10E. The witness described the object as a single, bright entity similar in appearance to a satellite. The object was observed at an elevation of 10 degrees, traveling on a course of 270 degrees. The altitude and speed of the object remained unknown. Weather conditions at the time were reported as sea rough, with clear skies and scattered clouds. The official conclusion reached by the evaluating authorities was that there was insufficient data for a definitive evaluation. While the object was initially compared to a satellite, it was confirmed that the ECHO I and II satellites were not in the area at the time of the observation. Furthermore, the flight path of the object was to the west, which ruled out satellite observations. The report notes that it was a possible aircraft, though the duration of the observation was omitted from the report.
