Project 10073 Record — Sebeka, Minnesota, 15 March 1967

On 15 March 1967, at approximately 0350Z, a civilian witness driving north near Sebeka, Minnesota, observed an unidentified aerial object. The witness, an employee at the Pine Cone Inn, reported that while driving, her vehicle's lights and motor fluctuated, dying out and coming back on. She observed a very large object with many bright, multi-colored lights, particularly around the bottom. She estimated the object's size to be approximately 24 feet and its speed to be 25 m.p.h. The object traveled in the same direction as the witness until she turned off the road, at which point the object continued to the north. The witness described the object as resembling a saucer with an upside-down cup on it. The report was initially received by the 739th Radar Squadron at Wadena AFS, Minnesota, on 13 April 1967, though the squadron's intelligence officer and operations section had no record of the event. The 29th Air Division subsequently forwarded the report to the Foreign Technology Division (FTD) for review, noting that no further investigation would be conducted by their office. The official conclusion reached was that the object was a possible aircraft, as no data was presented to indicate it could not have been one.
