Dear Sir,
You must get quite a lot of flying saucer
reports every so often, some are fron cranks, and some are because
of weather, heat, dust, ect. What ever the case you must get quite
a lot. I have something that may interest you. Something different
then a flying saucer story. then a flying saucer story.
This evening I went to a drive-in movie
at the Waterford Drive-in in Waterford, Connecticut to see a historical
movie intitled Genghis Mhan_ and its co-feature The Rain Must Fall
which I saw before. It was about twenty five minutes of nine, the
moon because since I had seen The Rain Must Fall (which played first)
before I wasn't very interested in it. I was alone in the car as I
did not have a date for the evening. S So, I was looking at the moon
S
face of the moon, in a straight line. In fact the speck or object face of the moon, in a straight line. In fact the speck or object
was traveling across the m middle of the moon surface. I continued
to wateh the moon for about ten minutes and I noticed that this
object was urtbkt orbiting the moon three times every two minutes I
could tell this by watching my watch in the bright 7icbt light from thew
dash board. I Now the bright side of the moon reflecting the sun's
rays is always towards us and to the naked human eye the xrxkuz

crater surfaces of the moon look light brown in color. That is why
I could see this black speck or object moving axxkax across the mzs
moon's surface. The object must have been quite large to inable me
to see it as a black speck. After looking at the moon for ten
minutes I then went back to look at the movie. A About a half an hour
later I looked at the moon again and observed this same object
its orbit. I I am staying in Niantic, Connecticut with my family for
2 T
two years of college in business with my father, who owns a large
furniture store in Norwich, Connecticut called
or Furniture Company. I am soon going to
open my own business called The Company selling

when I looked at the moon and this evening the moon was the
clearest that I have e ever seen it, the sky was clear with a few
clouds but I could see the rarmix surface or rather what is seen by
the naked eye and I saw this object. In fact I just looked out my.
bedroom windowaat and while the moon looks fakharkawapk a farther
away I can still see this ahjaxat object crossing the moon's surface.
It is probably nothing but I just thought that you might be interested It is probably nothing but I just thought that you might be interested
