Quote from the Wikipedia article:
“The Savannah River Site (SRS) is a nuclear reservation in the United States in the state of South Carolina, located on land in Aiken, Allendale and Barnwell counties adjacent to the Savannah River, 25 miles (40 km) southeast of Augusta, Georgia. The site was built during the 1950s to refine nuclear materials for deployment in nuclear weapons. It covers 310 square miles (800 km2) and employs more than 10,000 people.”

UFO News Article:
“ ‘Flying Saucer’ Reported
At Site of H-Bomb Plant”


3 December 1950
(Coshocton Tribune, Ohio)

Source: theufochronicles.com

Quote from the article:
“Were flying saucers spying on the proposed site of the nation’s 
first hydrogen plant (Savannah River Site) Friday night 
(1 December 1950)?

Four persons told today of seeing a strange, brilliantly-lighted object in the sky about 10:45 p.m. It dipped up and down and flashed back and forth for about 10 minutes before it flew out of sight, one eye-witness said.

This town is in the midst of the east tract which the atomic energy commission has selected for the site of the multi-million dollar 
H-bomb plant which will be under construction by early 1951.

The pastor (R. D. Parkinson) said Ralph Golphin Dunbar, a neighbor, first spotted the ‘saucer’ and called him outside to look at it. Iradell McCarthy of Aiden, S.C., a dinner guest, and his 12-year-old daughter, Evelon, came along.

According to Dunbar, ‘it looked like a great, big white star with red lights and moved around back and forth and up and down’ over the town (Ellenton, S.C.).”

Many of Ellenton’s residents relocated to New Ellenton (S.C.) (located 13 kilometres (8 miles) to the north) after having to abandon the town.

UFO Article:
“The Briefing Room” (Nuclear Connection Project)


By Francis L. Ridge, 1 February 2017
(NICAP.org)

The whole article:
“The Nuclear Connection Project was established on July 1, 2003. It has been fourteen very interesting years, probably the most enlightening work accomplished in the last half-century. Enlightening because it tells more about the ‘why’ of the [bona fide] UFO situation than any other field of study.
 
The evidence for a UFO/Nuclear Connection grows by the day. Official FBI, CIA, Army and Air Force documents establish, beyond a doubt, that UFOs have been seen and reported where uranium and plutonium are mined and manufactured (the Congo, New Mexico, Oak Ridge, Tennessee, the Hanford Plant at Washington, the Savannah River facility at South Carolina). Official reports are on file of UFOs seen where bomb development takes place (Los Alamos, Sandia Base) and where nuclear weapons are stored (Manzano Mountain near Kirtland, NM, and Killeen Base at Camp Hood, TX). Even where the bombs are transported to the testing areas: See U.S.S. Curtiss Incident. The Camp Hood/Killeen incidents are listed in the Project Blue Book ‘Unknowns’. Some of the most dramatic incidents involve interference with our missile sites (shutdown of Minuteman missiles at Malmstrom AFB, Montana). Even the absence of incidents is uncanny, such as during one of the most dangerous periods in history, the Cuban Missile Crisis. Accidental war, where UFOs could be mistaken for Russian missiles or jets during very tense time, was a distinct possibility. Official documents show that UFOs had caused quite a stir at other times in our history, several times setting off nationwide alerts.

Our thanks to all the NCP Staff, in particular, Dan Wilson, for his fine work with the Blue Book files and many of the files below. Our thanks to Rebecca Wise and the Project Blue Book Archive for the documentation which made all this more than just hearsay and inaccurate reporting. The documents speak for themselves. And without our technological workhorse, Jean Waskiewicz, most of what we do would not be usable or even accessable. And Robert Duvall’s insight into what all this implies, is right on the mark when it comes to the ‘connection’, both nuclear and strategic. And although not a member of NCP by choice, Robert Hastings has provided more evidence for the nuclear connection in the form of researched and investigated missile incidences, than anybody.

Our primary goal at this time is to research, document, and post reports with the more obvious evidence of nuclear connections, which includes a files on White Sands, Camp Hood, Texas, and Oak Ridge, Tennessee:

Nuclear Connection Cases
The New Mexico Sightings
The Killeen Base/Camp Hood, TX Sightings (not yet ready)
The Oak Ridge, TN Sightings (to be updated)

Next, we will continue to research and post potential NC incidents with case synopses and documents on nuclear information on the NICAP site. Any category of UFO report (from category 1 thru 11) can be marked as a potential or suspected nuclear connection case.

U.S. government web page: “U.S. Department of Energy Pantex Plant”:


Wikipedia article: “Pantex Plant”:


Quote from the Wikipedia article:
“The Pantex Plant is the primary United States nuclear weapons assembly and disassembly facility that aims to maintain the safety, security and reliability of the nation’s nuclear weapons stockpile.[1][2] The facility is located on a 16,000-acre (25 sq mi; 65 km2) site 17 miles (27 km) northeast of Amarillo, in Carson County, Texas in the Panhandle of Texas. The plant is managed and operated for the United States Department of Energy by Consolidated Nuclear Security and Sandia National Laboratories. Consolidated Nuclear Security, LLC (CNS) is composed of member companies Bechtel National, Inc., Leidos, Inc., Orbital ATK, Inc, and SOC LLC, with Booz Allen Hamilton, Inc. as a teaming subcontractor.[3] CNS also operates the Y-12 National Security Complex.[3]

As a major national security site, the plant and its grounds are strictly controlled and off-limits to all civilians, and the airspace above and around the plant is prohibited to civilian air traffic by the FAA as Prohibited Area P-47.

History

Bunkers at Pantex used for temporary staging of nuclear weapons.
The Pantex Plant was originally constructed as a conventional bomb plant for the United States Army Air Force during the early days of World War II. The Pantex Ordnance Plant was authorized February 24, 1942. Construction was completed on November 15, 1942 and workers from all over the U.S. flocked to Amarillo for jobs.

Pantex was abruptly deactivated when the war ended and remained vacant until 1949, when Texas Technological College in Lubbock (now Texas Tech University) purchased the site for $1.[4] Texas Tech used the land for experimental cattle-feeding operations.

In 1951, at the request of the Atomic Energy Commission (now the National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA)), the Army exercised a recapture clause in the sale contract and reclaimed the main plant and 10,000 acres (40 km2) of surrounding land for use as a nuclear weapons production facility. The Atomic Energy Commission refurbished and expanded the plant at a cost of $25 million. The remaining 6,000 acres (24 km2) of the original site were leased from Texas Tech in 1989.

The Pantex Plant was operated by Procter & Gamble from 1951 to 1956, Mason & Hanger from 1956 to 2001, and Babcock & Wilcox from 2001 to 2014.[5]

The plant employed about 3,600 people in 2010 and had a budget of $600 million for fiscal year 2010.[6]”

UFO News Article:
“WORK CREW SPOTS FLYING
SAUCERS OVER A-TEST SITE”


18 April 1952
(The Salt Lake Tribune, Salt Lake City, Utah)

Source: NICAP.org

The whole article:
“Flying Saucers in the area of the Nevada test site, where important new atomic tests are in progress, were reported Thursday [17 April 1952].

An Air Force technical sergeant and four civilian workers at the Nellis Air Force Base, near Las Vegas, said they saw 18 circular objects flying an easterly course which carried them over or very close to the test site.

Those who reported seeing the objects were T/S Orville Lawson, Rudy Toncer, sheet metal shop foreman, and sheet metal shop workers R.K. Van Houtin, Edward Gregory and Charles Ruliffson.

The objects went by at 12:05 p.m. Van Houtin saw them first and then called attention of the others to them.

The men watched the saucers for about 30 seconds.”

I also reported about this case on 14 July 2010.

UFO Case Report:
“Two Discs Over [Uranium] Mines /
Jet In Pursuit
March 29, 1952
[Elisabethville], [Belgian] Congo”


(NICAP.org)

The whole UFO case report:
“Time ???

aircraft fighter

Military
observer 1 air / sev gnd
No EMI
No radar contact

Dan Wilson:
March 29, 1952; [Elisabethville], Belgian Congo. (BBU)
This is the date this information was published and not the date of the incident. ‘Recently two fiery discs were sighted over the uranium mines located in the southern part of the Belgian Congo. The discs with a diameter of approximately 12 to 15 meters traveled in a precise and light manner, both vertically and horizontally. Changes in elevation from 800 to 1,000 meters were accomplished in a few seconds. The discs often moved down to within 20 meters (400') of the tree tops. Commander Pierre set out in pursuit of the objects in a fighter plane. On his first approach he came to within about 120 meters of one of the discs. Suddenly the discs hovered in one spot then took off in a unique zigzag flight to the northeast at an estimated speed of 1,500 kilometers per hour. Pierre gave up his pursuit after about 15 minutes.’ (McDonald files; Jan Aldrich, Dan Wilson)

Fran Ridge:
By January 1948 talks resulted in the U.S. getting all of the uranium from the Congo for the next two years, 1948-49, plus an option on uncommitted ore that had already been shipped to Britain. This generous settlement was achieved by allowing British scientists access to a number of nuclear secrets.”

U.S. Government UFO Document:
Document On the 1952 Elisabethville,
Belgian Congo, Uranium Mine UFO Incident


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

Source: NICAP.org

The whole document (not written in U.S. Department of Defense document format):
“Date of Inci: 29 Mar 52                Location: Belgian Congo

Recently two fiery disks were sighted over the uranium mines located in the southern part of the Belgian Congo in the Elisabethville district. The disks glided in curves and changed their position many times, so that from below they sometimes appeared as plates, ovals and simply lines. Suddenly both disks hovered in one spot, then took off in a unique zigzag flight to the NE.

Commander Pierre of the small Elisabethville airfield immediately set out a pursuit with a fighter plane. On his approach he came within about 120 meters of one of the disks. No further identification action was taken.

ATIC DOCUMENT 108463”

My comment:
On this web page, NICAP.org also presents a 29 March 1952 Die Presse (Germany) UFO news article (Project Blue Book document) about the Elisabethville UFO incident.

The UFO incident occurred a short while before 29 March 1952.
