They illustrate the object's aiz and movement at 4 minute intervals in relation to the moon. McColm, througt calculus, estimated the object to be 12,500 ft. in diameter. Editor's Note: This incident and Case 14 transcends any notion that "saucer" vehicles are confined to earth's atmosphere, therefore U.S. or Russian origi Unless these governments are secretly conducting interplanetary, travel, Case 14 and 22 and myriads of others, add another positive link to the hypothesis that "saucers" are extra-terrestrial and are using the moon as a hopping-off point. = C-23, Rome, Italy ...9/18/54}) A. P. Wire: Startled Romans who saw a strang cigar-shaped object streaking over the capital flooded newspaper offices with ealls. Radar operators also reported picking up the missile on instruments. Technicians at Ciampino Airfield described the “half-cigar" as plummeting toward earth for more than 1000 ft., then rising at trefhendous speed before vanishing. { Thanks to George Popowitch, Barberton, Ohio. ) An INS release by eyewitness Michael Chinigo states: ‘What attracted my at: tention was the strange sound as it passed overhead. It was like thunder with a staccato effect... a series of explosions that grew louder as the object got closer. This was followed by a dead silence as the thing stopped, or appeare to, at a height of about 6000 ft. Suddenly it shot upward and left an exhaust trail of milky white smoke.

What was strange was the object's ability to ‘park’ in mid-air for several minutes. The radar stati at Rome which picked up the 'cigar' or ‘cone’ said it registered for 3§ minute: . { Thanks to Warren Morse, Palo Alto, Calif.) < Pa Editor's Note; Significant here is the AP and INS release. First they break as the news on the Labrador sighting in July, then silence, then the Norwegia space man story in August, now Italy. Foreign sightings all -- a subtle preparation.
