Project 10073 Record: UFO Observation 2 Jun 67, McKeesport, Pennsylvania

This document contains the records for a UFO sighting reported in McKeesport, Pennsylvania, on June 2, 1967. The report includes correspondence from the U.S. Air Force Foreign Technology Division requesting further information from the witnesses, as well as completed FTD Form 164 questionnaires from two witnesses. The witnesses, both young males, described seeing a bright yellow, dish-shaped object with red and blue lights moving across the sky. One witness reported the object made a 90-degree turn, while the other reported straight-line motion. The duration of the sighting was estimated between three and six seconds. The witnesses noted the object left trails and made no sound. An internal evaluation by the Air Force, referencing Dr. Hynek, concluded that the sighting was likely a 'probable meteor.' The evaluator noted that the short duration and the presence of trails were consistent with a meteor, and that the conflicting reports regarding the object's motion could be discounted, as the second witness likely meant there was no deviation from a straight-line path rather than an absence of motion entirely.
