UFO SIGHTING, LYNNDYL, UTAH 19 April 1962 This is a recording concerning an unidentified flying object, taped on 19 April 1962 at 0800 hours at Lynndyl, Utah. For the purpose of the recording, would you give your full name and address, Sir. My name is Roy Nielson, Lynndyl, Utah. And could I have your age and occupation, Sir. I am a merchant here in Lynndyl, I run a grocery store and I have a service station and garage in connection with it. My age is sixty, 3rd of December, last. With regard to the shape of the object you saw last evening, would you describe the shape, Sir. The object, the way I see it, looked more of a boat (?) form, maybe a little wider than round; but it seemed to all be on fire. Did it have any definite shape? I thought at first it was maybe sort of like a basketball, about that size but I believe that it was smaller than that. Then, with regard to the size, you would compare it to about the size of a basketball or smaller? Or smaller. How much smaller, the size of a baseball, or what? Well, I believe it was a little larger than that, but due to the flame and that, I couldn''t tell. What was the color of the object? It was a white heat; I believe a little blue in the white. It looked like to me, I have seen burning metal, and that is what it looked like, more or less, burning metal. But it was so hot that it was just white heat. And there was only the one object? Just the one object. Were there any discernible features? Not that I could see. Was there any tail or trail or vapor trail behind it such as you see on aircraft of this kind? There was a long trail of flame and heat. I imagine that would be about 500 feet and approximately that or a little longer. It could have been longer than that. And after that went out, it seemed to burn out; or it was going so fast that the object that was causing the heat passed through and left the flame. Then it went out and it was a smoke trail.
