The following information was obtained by long distance telephone from lst Lt HARRIS, Robert NMI, AO 590921, 7th Communication Squadron Ent Air Force Base, Colorado Springs, Colorado. At time of sighting Lt Harris was at Cordell Hall, Oklahoma A & M Campus, Stillwater, Oklahoma, where he will remain until 23 July 1953. le As close as I could say it was elliptical; dim white light compared with a ceiling light or the light a search light would throw on the bottom of a cloud. It was moving. It i ible that it could have been a search light; however, it moved back and “th in a limited arc. is far as I could tell, there was no overcast, far as I know, the only thing that would throw up a light like that is the airport at Tulsa, Okla., approximately 70 miles away. The most objects I saw were two (2), one of which was intermittent. One was directly above the other. There is a possibility of a trail. The uppermost light seemed to disappear occasion=- ally. There was a very limited range of movement, I would say a 10° arce I heard no noise. If these objects were at the distance I think they were, the movement would have been quite rapid, I would med somethere be- tween 5 and 750 mphe This is based on what I have observed from aircraft. I left the objects to make the call to report them; when I went back they were not there. From time to time I saw stars above the object. I have never seen anything like this before. fra 2e I saw this object at approximately 2300 (CST) on 6 July 1953-6 I observed this for approximately two and one-half (23) minutes. 3e I observed it from the ground with the naked eye. lie I was outside on the ground at Cordell Hall, amie A&M Campus, Stillwater, Oklahoma.
