Project Blue Book file, 9 December 1965 fireball

U.S. Air Force (hosted by The Black Vault) · 37 pages · text by GLM-OCR

This U.S. Air Force Project Blue Book case file, hosted by The Black Vault, covers a fireball seen on 9 December 1965 over Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Michigan and Canada, and concludes it was a meteor. It holds memos on calls about Acme, Pennsylvania, where a search from the Oakdale Radar Site found nothing, plus letters from witnesses and a photographer. It also includes a Sky and Telescope article on the Great Lakes fireball and letters identifying material found in Lapeer County as chaff.

Read from the scan by GLM-OCR; expect the odd misread word.
