This document is not a pulp magazine but rather a U.S. Air Force UFO sighting report (Project 10073 form), dated November 24, 1957, from Brooktondale. It records an unidentified aerial observation lasting 2 hours 10 minutes. The witness reported a single round, milky bluish-white object approximately basketball-sized at arm's length, appearing repeatedly over a hilltop at intervals of a few seconds. The observer, identified as Mrs. L., was a civilian with ROTC training from Cornell, age 59. Weather conditions were clear with scattered clouds; surface temperature 63°F. The investigation concluded the sighting was "probably caused by a searchlight or beacon." No photographs were obtained, and no physical evidence of the object was recovered.
