UFO Files Reveal 1949 Los Alamos ‘Green Fireball’ Mystery
Summary
The Trump administration has released declassified records about a 1949 Los Alamos conference investigating mysterious green fireballs seen in the sky. Scientists and military officials could not explain these bright green objects, which did not behave like normal meteorites.Key Facts
- The records come from a 1949 conference held by the Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory.
- The green fireballs were reported by airline pilots, military personnel, and federal agents in late 1948 and early 1949.
- Observers noted the fireballs traveled at low altitudes (8 to 10 miles), stayed bright, and moved nearly horizontally over long distances.
- Dr. Lincoln LaPaz, a meteor expert, said the fireballs did not match any known meteor behavior.
- The green color of the fireballs matched wavelengths around 5218 angstroms, similar to copper salts, which is unusual for meteorites.
- The objects made no sound, which is unusual because bright meteorites usually create noise.
- The release is part of an ongoing effort by the Department of War to publish Cold War-era unexplained aerial phenomena files.
- The conference showed scientists seriously studied these phenomena long before modern UFO programs existed.
