Unknown over Washington, D.C., USA

Description

Washington, D.C. — July 19, 1952. Famous photograph showing a series of lights above the U.S. Capitol, associated with the celebrated 1952 "Washington Flap" in which radar operators at Washington National and Andrews Air Force Base tracked unidentified returns over restricted airspace on consecutive weekends. Photo researcher Vicente-Juan Ballester Olmos argues the Capitol image itself actually dates to 1965 and has been analyzed as an internal camera reflection (the light sources align through the camera's center of focus). Included in NICAP's mirror of the Blue Book photographic-cases archive.
