Project 10073 Record — Palos Verdes, California, November 29, 1966

On the night of November 29, 1966, at approximately 10:10 P.M., an individual identified as Dr. Sooth observed an unidentified flying object near Redondo Beach, California. The witness, who was stopped at a traffic light, first noticed a series of bright lights over the ocean. The object was described as being approximately 3/4 the size of a 707 jet, traveling in a WSW to ENE direction at an estimated speed of 300 to 400 mph and an altitude of 1,500 feet. The witness noted that the object was cigar-shaped, lacked tail fins or exhaust, and made virtually no noise. Initially, the object displayed white lights, but these changed to red, green, and pink. The witness followed the object to a parking lot, where they exited their vehicle to observe it further. The object eventually passed overhead and disappeared behind some buildings. The witness attempted to relocate the object but was unsuccessful. In their written account, the witness emphasized that the object was definitely not an airplane, noting that its wings were too small and its behavior inconsistent with conventional aircraft. The official Project 10073 record form categorizes the conclusion as 'Aircraft(possible)', noting that the description was consistent with an aircraft observation.
