Background

On April 21, 1952, Hank Harms was working on the boom at the B.C. Forest Products mill in Hammond, British Columbia, when he saw a green 'fireball' coming from the south. The entry gives no further details of the observation. The Vancouver Sun reported on 'flying fireballs' over the Fraser Valley on April 30, 1952, and on six citizens' accounts on May 1, 1952; Loren E. Gross lists the case in his history of 1952. The account follows the entry in George M. Eberhart's chronology UFOs and Intelligence (CUFOS) and the sources cited there; it is not an independent determination by From Beyond Space.
