Project 10073 Record — Baltimore, Maryland, 16 September 1965

This document is a Project 10073 record concerning a sighting of unidentified aerial phenomena in Baltimore, Maryland, on 16 September 1965. The witness, identified as a youth with a history of reporting such sightings, claimed to have observed two silver, oval-shaped objects hovering in the northwest section of Baltimore. The witness reported that the objects hovered for approximately ten minutes before moving away at a tremendous speed, accompanied by a slight whistling noise. The witness explicitly noted the absence of wings or vapor trails. The Air Force investigation concluded that the sightings were likely aircraft, noting that while the description could be associated with a balloon, local launch schedules indicated balloons were released at 1800 hours. The investigating officer dismissed the report as worthless, citing the witness's history of previous reports as a factor in their lack of credibility. The document includes correspondence from the Air Force Office of Information, specifically from Sara Hunt, providing the witness with the necessary FTD Form 164 for reporting observations. The witness also mentioned having previously reported similar sightings to NASA.
