Continental Divide, New Mexico - 26 January 1953 Ls Descrivtion eee | ‘ 4 On 26 January at 2115 MST Air Force personnel stationed at an AC&W station in this area observed an aerial phenomenon simultanecusly by electronic and visual means.

Additional weather information - temperature vs height - would be of value in determining the possibility of ice-laden clouds. 2 It is unfortunate that an interception was not att…
