UFO history series excerpt:
“UFO CIRCLED ATOMIC PLANT
SHIPPINGPORT, PA
10/1/57”
Created: 20 October 1997
(NICAP.org)
Quote from the excerpt:
“From page 1, ‘The Fifth Horseman of the Apocalypse,
UFOs: A History, 1957: October 1st -
November 2d’ by Loren Gross
‘1 October. Rochester, Pennsylvania. (about 7:00
p.m.)’
‘Circled Shippingport Atomic Plant’ (8 November 1957 Beaver
County Times, Beaver, Pennsylvania, news article)
‘A former Rochester councilman, John Karcher, owned a
farm in Daugherty township, outside the city of Rochester. On October 1st,
about 7:00 p.m., Mr. Karcher was with a friend, Lee Plunkett. The men were
outdoors with a clear view of the sky.
From the direction of the nearby town of Ohioville something
strange approached at an altitude of 2,000 feet . The two men spotted it and were
astonished. The thing was a big luminous torpedo they estimated was 200 feet long. The top
half was green-colored and the bottom half was reddish-orange. These two colors
were separated by a strip of yellow.’
Gross’ comments in a footnote: ‘The newspaper said the
FBI and the Air Force investigated. Where are those records?’

I also reported about the NICAP.org UFO case report (news
article) on 15 July 2010.
