Point Mugu 1953: Lockheed Witnesses and WV-2 Crew Report an Unidentified Object Classified by Blue Book as a Lenticular Cloud

To the point

Lockheed engineer Clarence L. "Kelly" Johnson and his wife Althea observed a large dark object off Point Mugu on December 16, 1953, while WV-2 pilots Colman, Wimmer, Thoren, and Ware reported a slender silhouette, Project Blue Book labeled it a lenticular cloud, and the case stands as one of the best documented Lockheed sightings thanks to letters, photos, and later analyses by Martin Shough.
