Slowinski, flying an F-94B on a practice run, to investigate. The pilot saw a bright, flashing, colored light at the location of the blip 29 miles west of Port Huron and followed it for 20 minutes, but he was unable to close on the object.

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.
