Background
At 10:30 p.m. an astronomer saw a bright white disc, 20 times the apparent size of the Moon, moving from west to northeast at high speed over Park Hills, Kentucky. The seemingly solid object was about 100 feet in diameter and flying at an altitude of 500 feet. It disappeared abruptly after 3–4 seconds. Eberhart cites part 2 of the survey "Astronomers and UFO's" in International UFO Reporter (April 1977). 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.
