Hampton Bay (Long Island) — June 24, 1953
Hampton Bay (Long Island), A civilian woman saw June 24,1953 something like “a large aircraft” flying very slowly 0018 and low. It had lighted red baud BlOUnd the middle a and was coming straight toward her house with an oscillating motion. She still thought it was an aircraft of some new design when it stopped near her, 25 m above ground. Then it flew backward over the water and hovered, making the same noise as a swarm of bees. The top section supported a series of red lights and a cabin with four portholes through which a con- trol panel was visible. No occupant was seen. The cabin rose above the object, rotated, then glided back. The object tilted toward the west and rose toward the southeast, disappearing within 3 sec at an 80° angle of climb after the 3-min sighting. Diameter; 30 m. Two days later a yellowish moss was observed at the site. (Atic)
