This document is a Flying Objects Report prepared in accordance with Air Force Regulation 200-2, which established guidance for reporting unidentified flying objects. This report records a November 13, 1953, incident in British Columbia, Canada, in which three U.S. Air Force servicemembers reported observing a round, blinking white light with a blue hue, initially described as resembling a falling star. The report describes the object’s motion as descending to an estimated altitude of 150 feet, remaining stationary for approximately 30 seconds, ascending vertically to an estimated altitude of 300 feet, remaining stationary for approximately 10 seconds, and then departing the observers’ field of view in a westerly direction while gaining altitude. All descriptive and estimative language contained in this report reflects the reporter’s subjective interpretation at the time of the event. Such characterizations should not be interpreted as a conclusive indication of the presence or absence of any intrinsic object features or performance characteristics.
