PROJECT 10073 RECORD J. DATE TIME GROUP 2. LOCATION 28 March 66 West Milton, Kettering, Fairborn, Ohio 10. CONCLUSION SATEl.I.ITES 4. NUMBER OF OBJECTS ot ECHO II or any of the PEGASUS satellites for Which we have Three Sep~.rate ~he schedules. However, there are over 30 satellites orbiting fthe earth which are vi sable. S. LENGTH OF OBSERVATION 1 J. BRIEF SUMMARY AND ANALYSIS 5-10 Minutes each All objects were reported as being satellite like. 6. TYPE OF OBSERVATION light like a star moving across the sky at a repid rate of spE The appearance, duration and flight charecteristics are all Grourxi-Visua1 coherent to those a satellite would have SEE CASE FILE 9. PHYSICAL EVIDENCE Did the object disappear while you were watching it? If so, how? 15. Did the object move behind something at any time, particularly a cloud? (Circle One): Don't Know. IF you answered YES, then tell what it moved behind: 16. Did the object move in front of something at any time, particularly a cloud? (Circle One): Don't Know. IF you answered YES, then tell what in front of: Tell in a few words the following things about the object: LllW.tTl.Sl~ 18. We wish to know the angular size. Hold a match stick at arm's length in line with a known object and note how the object is covered by the head of the match. If you had performed this experiment at the time of the sighting, how much of the object would hove been coverltd by the match head? 19. Draw o picture that will show the shape of the object or objects.
