This Project Blue Book file on the Socorro, New Mexico sighting, held by the Internet Archive, collects Air Force records and 1964 press clippings. It covers policeman Lonnie Zamora's April 24, 1964 report of an egg-shaped object with four legs, the scorched brush and ground depressions, and Dr. J. Allen Hynek's investigation. An Air Force summary says soil and brush analysis found no radiation or propellant and the case stayed open. Later New Mexico reports were judged known objects or hoaxes.

Dr. J. Allen Hynek, Chairman Astronomy Department Northwestern University Evanston, Illinois Dear Dr. Hynek I may have a lead on the person you are looking for. Within a week or two after Zamora's sighting on April 24, 1964, my mother sent me a clipping from Dubuque who saw the saucer in Socorro. The clipping was from the Telegraph Herald, Dubuque's newspaper, and included a picture of the individual. As I recall, the man was driving into Socorro at the time. Unfortunately, I no longer have the clipping. However, I am sure that the name and address of the individual could be obtained from the Telegraph Herald in Dubuque. Very truly yours, (signed) Robert A. Bieberman 601 Pitch Avenue Socorro, New Mexico 87801
