in three areas of flashing lights. It was seen to release two smaller ob-
jects, also oval and with the same licht formations. These amaller UFCs each.
took off on its own and returned to the “mother chip" about an hour Lleter!!
Finally the larger object departed at ersat speed, The same drama was watched

A spectacular flying saucer hovered near the Smithsonian satel-
lite-observing station in Curacao, British West Indies, on the night
of October 17, 1961. The station crew observed it with binoculars,
by apogee telescope, and photographed it with the Baker-Nunn
satellite camera. A brilliantly glowing object, it shone in the eastern
sky, moving erratically and fluctuating in brightness. After watching
it for nearly an hour and finding that the nearby airport could not
observe the object, the observers concluded that it must be less
distant than it seemed, and set out by car to try to get a closer look.
About a mile and a half from the station they stopped, and solved
the mystery. A plantation manager and his servant stood in a field,
hanging onto one end of a 1200-foot kite string. At the other end,
high in the sky, soared a kite; hanging from it was a lighted pressure
lantern [14].

peared to oScillate with a side-wise

seemed to explode In 4 Driliiant blue

Jtusion, as ai] four cbjects later ap-
peered intact.) “Intensity of glow about

Leary jumped in Sis car and pursued
the UFOs, which were moving slowly,
