This document contains a Project 10073 record regarding a UFO sighting in Tulsa, Oklahoma, on June 21, 1967. The report includes a formal letter from Colonel James C. Manatt of the Foreign Technology Division at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, informing the witness that the initial report provided was insufficient for a scientific evaluation. The witness account describes an unusual, circular, and very bright object observed in the evening sky. The object reportedly moved from the North North West, descended straight down, stopped abruptly, and then shot off in a North Eastern direction. The witnesses, who were near the Tulsa International Airport, noted that the object lacked wings and running lights, distinguishing it from conventional aircraft or satellites. Later that same evening, the group observed another object moving in a North Easterly direction at a considerable speed. The witnesses attempted to document the event using a Bell & Howell Electric Eye camera, taking three exposures. However, upon returning to the store to have the film developed, they were informed that there were no pictures of the UFO and no negatives were provided. The Air Force requested that the witnesses complete an attached FTD Form 164 to provide further details, but the official conclusion remained that there was insufficient data for a formal evaluation.
