What was reported

Mariana and his secretary reported two silvery lights moving together across the sky. The film was examined by the Air Force and later featured in the 1956 documentary 'Unidentified Flying Objects'.

Official and public statements

The Air Force stated the objects were probably reflections from two F-94 jets known to be in the area. The Condon Committee's 1968 report stated that the aircraft explanation was possible but not established.
