UFO Sighting Report — Lewisburg, Ohio, 30 March 1965

This document compiles reports and investigative findings regarding a series of UFO sightings in the Lewisburg and Dayton, Ohio area on the night of March 30, 1965. Multiple witnesses reported observing a bright, golden, oval-shaped object in the sky around 2200 hours. Witnesses described the object as stationary, flickering, and having an antenna-like structure. Some observers noted that the object appeared to move South and then East before disappearing. The Air Force investigation, led by Sgt. Moody and Sgt. Jones, involved interviewing witnesses, checking local police logs, and consulting with weather stations and radar facilities. The investigation determined that there were no unusual radar contacts or balloon launches in the area that could account for the sightings. Following consultation with Dr. J. Allen Hynek, the official conclusion reached was that the sightings were a combination of the setting of the planet Jupiter and observations of aircraft. The report includes copies of correspondence with witnesses, completed technical information questionnaires, and meteorological data from the Sulphur Grove weather station, which confirmed that no weather balloons carrying lights were launched in the area at the time of the sightings.
