Background

At 10:20 p.m. civilian engineer Paul L. Anderson saw three light-green cylindrical objects at Truth or Consequences, New Mexico. They hovered at 45° elevation in an inverted-V formation and switched to echelon when one object moved with a rolling motion along its long axis. It disappeared by rising rapidly and vertically. The observation lasted nine minutes. 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.
