“PROJECT 10073 RECORD CARD:
DATE: 23 Mar 52/
LOCATION: Yakima, Washington”


(Project Blue Book, U.S. Air Force, Washington, D.C.)

Quote from the document:
“Firey [sic] color. Flash shape.

Balloon launch was as 2100 and 0300. Only balloon in area could be possible Stray. Sun would be low at this time and could possibly cause flash of light.

Ground radar pick-up at 1805 PST. F-94 scrambled at 1833. Twice F-94 saw flash and unsuccessfully tried for radar plot showed object drifting with wind.

No ground radar pick-up after 1613 (my correction: 1813) PST.”

Project Blue Book listed the case as “Unknown.”

NOTE: NICAP.org gives the date of the UFO incident as 22 March 1952.
