are five eye witnesses to the sighting. Doctor Seishi MIYAJl, Chief of
the Tokyo Astronomical Observatory, is quoted as saying: "The fact that
observers noticed this flying body is an undeniable fact. But, it should
not be immediately considered a flyirg saucer. It is necessary to further
study this celestial body. Careful observation is needed since aircraft
