C59/100Hackensack, New Jersey Flying Disc Sighting · Pages 4–7
Scientific validation axis from the AATIP framework. Checks whether the record references characteristics that would constitute evidence of anomalous technology.
Hovering or lift without conventional means
Truex stated 'there was no exhaust or indication of any motive power for the object' while it was airborne and traveling at altitude. No wings, rotors, strings, or conventional lift mechanism were observed. However, the object was in horizontal motion rather than hovering, and the absence of visible propulsion from this era and vantage point may be inconclusive.
Acceleration defying known physics
High speed without expected physical effects
Evading or confounding sensor systems
Transitioning between air, water, or space
Physiological effects on witnesses or organisms
This collection of FBI memoranda and teletypes details "flying disc" and "flying saucer" sightings and related investigations from July to August 1947. Specific incidents documented include a multi-witness sighting of a "round, black object" or "large, flat child's cup" in Hackensack, New Jersey, and the recovery of anomalous fused material after an object's disappearance in a field in Midland, Michigan. Also included are communications regarding a "disc" sighted over Lake Michigan, alongside an investigation into Richard F. Shaver of Lily Lake, Illinois, which references a four-witness pilot sighting over southern Wisconsin.
