OB 7260 — 1956-12-16 — Biloxi, Mississippi (31 deg 49 min N, 89 deg 18 min W)

On 16 December 1956 during day at Biloxi, Mississippi (31-49N 89-18W), Charles Moody (age 15) observed two round cream-to-white half-dollar sized objects, fuzzy and very bright. The first object approached from south to north on a collision course with a jet aircraft heading east, paralleled the jet briefly, then disappeared for a second and rose rapidly to join a second similar object that appeared suddenly. Both objects rose until they faded. The jet aircraft appeared to roll slightly as the object neared. Duration 3-5 seconds. The New Orleans Weather Bureau released a cream-colored weather balloon at 1500Z which could have been in the area; combined with a jet passing the balloon, this could explain the sighting.
