Project 10073 Record: UFO Observation, Rossburg, Ohio

This document consists of a Project 10073 record and associated correspondence regarding a UFO sighting reported by a civilian in Rossburg, Ohio. The witness reported observing an object on March 1, 1968, at 2100 hours local time. The Air Force, through the Foreign Technology Division at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, evaluated the report and concluded that the sighting was likely caused by the decay of satellite debris. Specifically, the report identifies three potential objects: French debris (Object #2993) and Titan 3C-4 debris (Objects #1886 and #1648), all of which had decay windows consistent with the observation time. On March 6, 1968, Colonel James C. Manatt, Director of Production, wrote to the witness stating that the information provided was insufficient for a scientific investigation and requested that the witness complete an AF Form 117 to provide further details. The document includes the original record form, the official response from the Air Force, and the witness's original handwritten correspondence.
