THAT THE OBJECT WAS VERY BRIGHT, WHEN COMPARED TO THE BRIGHTNESS OF
STARS, AND LARGER THAN STARS. IN THE REPORTING OFFICERS OPINION
THIS SOUNDS VERY MUCH LIKE THE DESCRIPTION OF A WEATHER BALLOON.
I PERSONNALLY SAW A WEATHER BALLOON AT DUSK, ABOUT SIX MONTHS AGO
IN PANAMA, AND THIS DESCRIPTION IS MUCH THE SAME AS I WOULD HAVE HAUE
GIVEN, HAD I NOT KNOWN WHAT I WAS LOOKING AT. IN THIS REPORT IT WAS
JUST BEFORE DAWN AND WHEN I SAW THE WX BALLOON IT WAS AT DUSK. IN
BOTH CASES THE LIGHT RAYS OF THE SUN WERE HIGH IN THE SKY EVEN ' THOUGH
IT WAS DARK OR NEARLY DARK ON THE GROUND
