Narrative

On 6 March 1956 at 2250Z (night), a hardware store owner and a school teacher in Manitowish Waters, Wisconsin observed a round bright white object the size of a dime at arm's length, hazy around the edges, fifty times the size of a normal star. The object was 45 degrees elevation to the west (270 azimuth), and stayed straight before fading out of sight after 15-20 minutes. Weather was clear. No radar pickup. Headquarters evaluated this as astronomical (Venus).
