(Last Updated On: September 27, 2016)

Date: August 1964
Location: Ravenna, Ohio
Time:
Summary: Mom was hanging out clothes to dry. She yelled for me to come outside, I was about 14. There was a gray cigar-shaped object (5 or 6 to 1 ratio height to length) above the clouds. It was solid, not a lenticular cloud. It was hovering in one spot must have been over 100 m. to be seen at that height. It was not a blimp or balloon or any aircraft I have ever seen. As the clouds were moving, it was a breezy day, it would disappear behind a cloud, but stayed in the same place so we could see it when the cloud passed. After a minute or two it disappeared behind a cloud but was gone when the cloud moved on.
