distance from the highway. The converging shafts of light then dimed as if
they had been shuttered and a circle of S or lo red lights appeared on the
underside of the object. The object rose vertically, very rapidly, and was
out of sight in 5 or 6 seconds. The total tine of sighting was 8 to lo
minutes. The continued east to Portage Lake Road and then south to

records; otherwise I'll paying tax on travel. However, I
think I can keep my records straight, if this is more helpful
to you that way. You will rom me in about a. week on this
matter.
I thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity of giving the talk
the other the other day and I am particularly glad dauand antieulanlya we had a two-star twonstan General Genaral
present. My only hope is that my definite insistence on
"taking things more seriously," speclally
etc., was not taken in the wrong spirit. I believe we must take
things seriously because the public just es look toward the Air
Force as the source c
and if we are not aware of what's going on and of proper scientific
treatment of these e things, we lay ourselves open to a great deal of
criticism and, unfortunately, even ridicule. It is this that I had
in mind when I stressed these points so strongly. You will be
hearing from me.

and vanished in a few seconds. It had been in view for a period
of five to ten minutes.
Checking the most probable explanations first, ATIC officials
found that the nearby Willow Run Airport had had no aircraft in
the vicinity at the time and that no star or planet seemed to be
involved. Further investigation showed that the flying bird cage was
actually the radio telescope of the University of Michigan. The
telescope was installed on the top of Peach Mountain and was
clearly visible from the road on which the witnesses were traveling.
On the underside of the eighty-five-foot "dish" was a wire-mesh
structure that suggested the bird cage. At the time of the sighting structure that suggested the bird cage. At the time of the sighting
the dish was facing in the direction of the witnesses and was illumi-
nated by a floodlight as well as by the bright moonlight. It had a t mooolicht lt had
seemed to be following the car only because the car itself was mov-
ing. The astronomers operating the telescope were rotating the dish
from the horizon to the zenith, and the yellow lights dimmed be-
cause the witnesses were seeing less and less of the surface. The
"circle" of red lights was the red aircraft-warning lights on the
WUOM radio tower, which lay in a direct line betwcen the tele-
scope and the witnesses. When the dish reached the zenith and
was pointed to the sky overhead, the operating crew turned off
the floodlights. The dish was no longer visible to the witnesses, who
interpreted the sudden disappearance as a sudden vertical ascent
into the sky [1].

Michigan's Flying Bird Cage
A UFO sighting based on mistaken identification of strange lights
occurred in the early morning hours of March 22, 1959, near Ann
Arbor, Michigan. The night was clear, the moon was nearly full,
and visibility was unusually good. At about 1:30 A.M. a man and
his wife driving on a country road suddenly noticed a strange object
