Project 10073 Record — St. Louis, Mo.

This document file contains a collection of correspondence and records related to a UFO sighting reported in St. Louis, Missouri, on May 6, 1967. The report was submitted by an individual associated with the Private Research Organization for Space and Aeronautics (PROSA), directed by Bradley M. Mueller. The Air Force, specifically the Community Relations Division, requested the original negative of the photograph to conduct a proper evaluation. The correspondence highlights a back-and-forth between the Air Force and the witness, with the Air Force repeatedly requesting the original negative and specific camera data, such as the type of camera, lens, and film used. The Air Force also contacted the Eastman Kodak Company to obtain technical specifications for the Kodak Instamatic 100 camera, which was identified as the potential camera used. Despite these efforts, the final conclusion recorded in the Project 10073 file was 'Insufficient Data' for both the sighting and the photograph. The Air Force noted that the delay in reporting the incident hindered their ability to investigate, as official records are typically maintained for only thirty days. The file includes various copies of the photograph, which appear to be of poor quality, and internal administrative notes regarding the handling of the case.
