call into the Filter Center and reported the second one. I had observed the
lights for about 4 hrs. before going into a building. At about that time I
went into the house for about l5 min. I returned outside to find both objects
last time, although I did not see it go, it was gone. But the first one was
still at about the same distance as it was all night. It was quite lowwhen
I last saw the first one, I then went into the house and went to bed; went to bed; so as

in both the 763rd AC & W station and the 47th FIS stated that Capt Solon
was an excellent officer, a capable pilot and a man of high integrity.
SOURCE appearsd to be the type of person who would exploy the good
reasoning powers he possessed in evaluating this situation. Tharefore, in
the investigator's opinion, information given by SouRce is considered to
be reliable.
III. DESCRIPTION OF CBJSCT BY SOURCE:
I. SOURCE was on atandby duty at 47th FIS, Niagara Falls AFB
(GEORET GJLP 58o6) when he was serambled by the 763rd AC & W station to
interceyt an unidentified flying object in the Hamburg, N.Y. (GEORer GJMN
1042area. The 763rd AC & W had been notified of this object by the
an 7-860
2. SCURCE then made visual contact with the ob ject and ratained
his contact for the next 40-50 minutes. During the time of observation
there were many stars, no moonlight, no clouds from 4,ooo Peet up, and no
trace of daylight. SOURCE estimated actual size of the object te be larger
than an aircraft, but at no time did it appear larger than a half dollar
held at arm's length.
3. SOURCE seemed to be greatly impressed with the brightness of the
object. luminous color except
for the red light seen
feet. The actual brightness of the object was never constant and it contin-
ually changed in intensity. SouRcE described the object as being similar
to roving type searchlights without a beam reflector.

4. SOURCE had no definite opinion as to identity of the object,
however, he was absolutely sure that it was not a contemporary aircraft.
SOURcE did state that object could possibly be a refraction of light, but
the processes causing such a phenomenon were unknown to him.
5. Object seemed to have the ability to maneuver with the aircraft
and still maintain its distance. S SOURCE tried to close on object several
times with no apparent results.

decided I wouid determine if this was my imagination, a star object. I
concluded that if this was a star b y pointing my aircraft rectly at this
object and elimbing to the maximum altitude of the F-8óD I would stall out
and -ahead of me. But while I was climbing it appeared that I was getting closer
in range. The object definitely got brighter and finally at 32,ooo' I was level
with the object-because at this point instead of looking up at it, I was looking with the object-because at this point instead of looking up at it, I was looking
out and level with it at my flight altitude. This was the first time I seemed out and level with it at my flight altitude. This was the first time I seemed
to be getting closer, then I notice a flashing red lite - intermittently flash-
ing from this object. ,At this time I was 9l N-miles W-Nw of home plate - all
of a sudden it seemed to increase the gap between me and the object, at this
time I was running lcw on fuel - and called it quits - after turning back for
home I. kept this object in sight with the rear view mirror in the A/C - I
decided to take one .last look, -I banked the A/C around and there was behind me
to my Base, landing at 223o est. At no time did I even get a radar contact
with my radar equip. -that was operating very satisfactorily.

The conclusions of the newsmen seemed to lean towards the idea that the
object was a normal aircraft in the area.

COMBENTS of Approving Officer:
1. It is the opinion of this headquarters that this sighting g was definite
caused by the planet Verus. The following is given in support the above
hypothesis:
. The planet Venua was located at the same position as UFOB at
the time of the sighting and was the brightest heavenly body i in the sky.
c. Failure of airborne radar as well ground radar seta
to pick up the object.
d. At the time of the attempted air intercept by Captain Solon, Venus
was "setting" in the west and would have therefore appeared to be level with,
or lower than, his aireraft. Captain heading while attempting to over-
take the object was the approximate azbwarch of Vemus.
