AI-Generated Summary
An unidentified aerial phenomenon was reported in Dayton, Ohio, on June 4, 1969. The Air Force classified the case as 'insufficient data' after the witness failed to return a requested follow-up form.
This document consists of a Project 10073 record, a formal letter from the Air Force, and a memorandum for the record regarding a UFO sighting in Dayton, Ohio, on June 4, 1969. The primary witness, whose name is redacted, reported observing a light described as being 'big as a snowball' over a housing development starting at 9:45 p.m. The light reportedly moved around but returned to the same general area until it disappeared at 10:45 p.m. The witness also reported seeing eight triangular objects during or after the disappearance of the light. A star was noted to be visible near the object. The Air Force, represented by Lt. Colonel Hector Quintanilla, Jr. of the Aerial Phenomena Office, determined that the initial report lacked sufficient detail for a scientific investigation. Consequently, the Air Force sent a letter to the witness on June 8, 1969, requesting that they complete an AF Form 117 to provide more comprehensive data. As of November 1969, the form had not been returned, and the case was officially classified as having 'insufficient data'.
The information which we have received is not sufficient for a scientific investigation.
