Dear Sir:
May I pardon this intrusion upon your time, as goodness kmows, you are
probably a very busy man. However, last nite I, my wife and two friends
he had no explanation fo . and suzgested I write to you, to which I
am anxiously waiting an ans May I also state that I spent 4 yrs. in
of some sightings reported by different people in different parts of the
country. So Sir, please do not hold this letter in the light of a crank,
or prankish letter.
At 10:50 sharp last nite, after iewing our Echo Satellite, and were in
the back yard talking, my wife noticed a red lite coming from a southerly
direction I immediately explained that it probably was an aircraft making
its way into the traffic pattern. However, it proceeded straight across
the sky in a Northern direction, and about 3/4 the wey across the sky, it
veered sharply eastward, without changing speed, wi thout any de-acceleration,
bright light, red in color, shingmg at the same density, whole path.
I could understand if the red light was blinking off and usual, or I
could understand if we saw other navigational lights, however, this was not
the case, the light was of the same intensity the whole flight I also
assumed that even if it were a plane of the U-2 type, that some noise would
be heard, as we would have probably have heard the tremendous pressures
hitting the skin, if the plane was low. If it were at ar itude of say
60,ooo ft., then the light that shone would have been of size, as
it shone very brightly And with all of this,.bow can a -plant as we
know it, change direction, without any decrease in speed, - right
angle. So to recap, it moved in a South to North direction, dire ectly overhead,
veered sharply to the East, The red light did not change in density, there veered sharply to tne East, The red Iight did not cnange In density, there
was absolutely no sound at all. It moved across the sky approximately 3 to
4 times as fast as the Echo satellite.
I did not intend to over-whelm you with a lengthy letter, but would appreciate
an answer when you have time. an answer when you have time.
Very truly Very truly Yours
