This document is a Project 10073 record detailing a civilian sighting of four unidentified aerial objects in St Clair, Pennsylvania, on July 14, 1966. The witness, a 50-year-old male, reported observing four star-like lights at approximately 0130Z. He noted that the objects initially resembled sputniks but were distinguished by their blinking lights. According to the witness, the objects moved south before one turned east and began to blink. The witness claimed to have followed the objects with his eyes until they were no longer visible. The official conclusion reached by the Air Force was that the objects were possibly aircraft, noting that there was no data presented to indicate they could not have been an aircraft. The witness provided extensive additional context, including descriptions of previous alleged sightings in 1940 and 1952, and expressed frustration that he had never received feedback on his reports. He described the objects as having no sound and moving significantly faster than a sputnik. The report includes a completed U.S. Air Force technical information questionnaire, sketches of the objects' motion, and personal notes from the witness regarding his observations and his attempts to investigate the phenomena through local utility companies.
