Tabulation on Unconventional Flying Object Sighted Near Baku (with Memo Attac

This Central Intelligence Agency release pairs a January 1956 transmittal memo from the Liaison Division to the Chief of the Applied Science Division with a summary and tabulation of an unconventional flying object sighted in the USSR on 4 October 1955. Members of a party travelling by train from Baku to Tiflis made the sighting. The chart sets their accounts side by side, covering shape, size, lights, motion and searchlights. It concludes that darkness and the short duration kept the observers from describing the object properly.
