AI-Generated Summary
A civilian reported a UFO sighting in Medway, Ohio, on February 4, 1968. The Air Force classified the case as 'insufficient data' after the witness failed to complete the required follow-up questionnaire.
On February 4, 1968, an unidentified aerial phenomenon was reported in Medway, Ohio. The witness, a civilian, observed a single object for approximately 75 minutes, beginning at 0615Z. The witness described the object as appearing self-luminous and solid, though it looked fuzzy at the observed distance and was compared to a star. The movement was described as very slow and in a straight line. The witness was standing in her back door at the time of the sighting and noted the object appeared to be over the approach to the Patterson runway, approximately 2.5 miles from her home. The witness reported the sighting to Lt. Connor of the FTD/OD. The Air Force requested that the witness complete an AF Form 117 to provide further details for a scientific investigation. However, the witness failed to complete the form. Consequently, the official conclusion of the Foreign Technology Division was that there was insufficient data for a formal evaluation, with a note that the sighting was likely a star.
Although the sighting is very likely of a star because of the failure to complete the 117 it is being listed as insufficient data.
