Project 10073 Record — Duluth, Minnesota, 30 November 1966

This document is a Project 10073 record concerning a UFO sighting in Duluth, Minnesota, on 29 November 1966. The primary witness, identified as a private pilot and former OSI agent, reported observing a blue-white object that appeared the size of a silver dollar at arm's length. The object was described as stationary for approximately five minutes before the observer went inside their kitchen; upon returning, the object was gone. The report also mentions a hole in the ice of Pike Lake, approximately 100 feet long and 20 feet wide, which had been noticed several days prior to the sighting and was not present the previous winter. The observer's dogs were reported to have been barking at night several times recently. The Air Force concluded that there was insufficient data for a formal evaluation of the incident. A follow-up letter from Colonel Louis DeGoes of the Air Force dated 21 December 1966 requested that the witness complete an FTD Form 164 to provide further details, as the initial information provided to the 29th Air Division was deemed inadequate.
