AI-Generated Summary
This document summarizes a 1964 UFO sighting in British Columbia by two witnesses, including a Forest Ranger. It notes the lack of sound and the absence of reported aircraft in the area at the time of the incident.
On December 4, 1964, Forest Ranger Ronald M. Hawkins and his companion, V.G. Bate, observed an unidentified flying object while traveling between Burns Lake and Smithers, British Columbia. The object was initially perceived as having four equally spaced yellow lights, which the witnesses first speculated might be the cabin lights of a low-flying aircraft. Upon exiting their vehicle, the witnesses noted that the object made no sound. The object was described as having perfectly round, pale yellow lights and was estimated to be traveling at the speed of a DC-6 airliner. At the time of the initial observation, the object was approximately one-fourth of a mile away and appeared to be the size of a dime held at arm's length. The sighting concluded when the object disappeared behind a cloud. Upon arriving in Smithers, the witnesses contacted the local airport and were informed that no aircraft had been reported in the vicinity at that time. This incident was documented in Blue Book Report No. 9214 and subsequently featured in the April-May 1965 issue of the NICAP UFO Investigator.
The lights were "perfectly round, equally spaced, and pale yellow in colour."
