Amazing Stories, March 1960
· March 1960

This document is not a pulp magazine but rather a U.S. Air Force Project Blue Book record card and associated materials dated 1950 (with references to a March 2, 1960 sighting). It documents a UFO sighting near Vienna, Austria where a newspaper photographer for Wiener Montag allegedly photographed a glowing, round object hovering 15-45 feet above ground. The photographer reported experiencing burns on his face and hands from the encounter's heat. The object hovered for 6-10 seconds before departing. The report includes the original observation form, witness statements, newspaper clippings, and investigation notes questioning whether photograph details supported the flying saucer claims, with official evaluation concluding "insufficient data."
