Project 12673 Record - Sighting Report, Las Vegas, Nevada, 25 May 1967

This document consists of a series of Air Force staff messages regarding a UFO sighting reported by 2LT Peter B. Thatcher on 25 May 1967 in Charleston Heights, Las Vegas, Nevada. The observer, identified as a payroll timekeeper and reporting officer at Nellis AFB, described observing a white, star-like object for 15 to 20 minutes. He reported that the object moved, stopped, and zig-zagged before disappearing quickly. The observer noted that he had seen at least 35 such objects over the previous year, though this was his first formal report. He also mentioned that the objects were usually seen in pairs, sometimes up to four at a time, and that he had attempted to photograph them without success. The official conclusion provided by the Air Force was that the object was a 'possible aircraft,' noting that there was no data to suggest it could not have been an aircraft. The document also includes unrelated administrative correspondence regarding a visit authorization for an LTV Electrosystems employee to the Pentagon.
