White cloudy glow appeared to grow around center as the brightness diminished. No effect on radar or radio.

11. COMMENTS: Formalhaut described in rpt for most of the period. Obj rate of motion consistent with the movement of an astro body. It is difficult to understand how this lst mag star was misidentified by the naval unit rping it as a UFO.
