This document is a Project 10073 record detailing a civilian sighting of an unidentified aerial phenomenon in Bergenfield, New Jersey, on June 16, 1966. The report, which includes a questionnaire completed by the witness, describes a single object observed for approximately three minutes. The witness, who was outdoors at the time, reported seeing a reddish-orange light with no defined shape, which they compared to the tail light of an automobile. The object followed an erratic path in a North-Northeast direction. The witness noted that there was no detectable sound and that the night sky was clear. The witness, who claims to be an amateur astronomer who frequently observes the sky with a telescope, stated that this was the first time they had seen such an object. They attempted to report the sighting to their parents, who did not believe them. The official conclusion reached by the evaluating agency was that there was insufficient data for a formal evaluation.
It was the first time we ever saw anything like that. I go out almost every night with my 180 power telescope to see planets, stars, and to see if I can see any UFOs.
