UFO Observation Report — Tallahassee, Florida, 4 November 1967

This document contains a UFO sighting report filed by 16-year-old Tom White of Tallahassee, Florida, regarding an event on November 4, 1967. The witness reported observing an object that resembled an elongated star for approximately 15 minutes, starting around 7:05 P.M. E.S.T. The object was described as having blurred edges, being brighter than dimmest stars but dimmer than the brightest stars, and moving in a path that went from Southwest to North to Northwest. The witness noted that the object made no sound and appeared to be moving too fast to be an airplane. The sighting was also witnessed by the author's brother and mother. The witness attempted to verify the nature of the object by contacting a friend whose father worked at the local Weather Bureau, who suggested that no known object would behave in such a manner. The Department of the Air Force, specifically the Foreign Technology Division at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, responded to the report on November 14, 1967, stating that the information provided was insufficient for a scientific investigation and requesting that the witness complete an AF Form 117. The file includes the witness's completed questionnaire, hand-drawn sketches of the object's shape and flight path, and correspondence from the Air Force.
