SOURCE CIVILIAN

NUMBER OF OBJECTS ONE

LENGTH OF OBSERVATION TEN SECONDS

CONCLUSION INSUFFICIENT DATA FOR EVALUATION

BRIEF SUMMARY AND ANALYSIS The observers sighted a bright bluish white light.

COMMENTS: The observers at one point described the light as simply a light, yet in another as a large fireworks sparkler No mention is made if there were any sparks or not. Also the distance of the light is given as "100 feet but it could have been miles away." Camarillo is quite close to several airfields. The sighting may have been of a plane, a meteor, a hot air balloon, a weather balloon etc. However, since the sighting is of a light it does not really meet the definition of a UFO as given in APR 65-17. All that can be said is that there is not enough information to determine what the light was attached to.
