Full Report

This cylindrical-appearing UFO was photographed over New York City on March 20, 1950.

The photographer’s name was deleted from Project Blue Book’s files — as were most names when the material was finally declassified and released.

Upon investigating the report, Project Grudge officially labeled it: “the moon”!

Some ufologists have speculated that tubular objects of this sort may be “motherships,” purportedly capable of taking on and discharging smaller “craft” in stacks, poker-chip fashion.
