Project Blue Book Assessment:

I. Description of Incident

At 0230Z (2230 local time) an F-94 crew attempted to intercept a bright orange and red light, the light had no definite shape. The intercept was unsuccessful in that the object seemed to keep the same distance from the F-94. The F-94 was on a 160° heading from Goose AFB. No radar contact, either airborne or ground, was made.

The weather was CAVU.

II. Discussion of Incident

The report states that all aircraft in the area were accounted for. There is no reason to believe, however, that the F-94 was observing a bright star or planet. This has occurred several times in the past. The fact that the light appeared to stay the same distance from the aircraft is characteristic of a star chase..

HI. Conclusion

Possibly an astronomical body.
