UFO sightings in this

area have been rampant.

As I said earlier, it's a

very high volume of reports.

Even all the way up to

Kecksburg in the 1960s.

[Narrator] There probably was

a time when the residents of

Kecksburg felt far removed from

the tension of the Cold War

and obsession over UFOs.

While the televisions, movie

theaters and drive-ins were

full of nuclear wars or

countered by fantastical aliens

and flying saucers, this

tiny burg remained blissfully

detached from the near

hysteria that was gripping

other areas of the country.

In late 1965, that sense of

security would be shattered.

(dark atmospheric tones)

I'll remember it all my life.

It's something

I'll never forget.

That night, we was actually

out playing football,

and we didn't actually know

about it until we walked back

in the house and Mom and Dad

said that there was a thing on

the radio that something

crashed in Acme.

My mom looked out the window

and she seen all the vehicles

and stuff on the

road, she says, well,

this is right behind the

house, that ain't in Acme.

I remember that evening

just like it was yesterday.

It was a Thursday evening,

December 9th, 1965.

I was listening to a radio

station in Pittsburgh.

There was a breaking news

story coming on the radio

about this brilliant fireball,

this fire object was seen

from the tip on Ontario,

Canada over Michigan, Ohio

and Pennsylvania.

[Narrator] That night, a

radiant fireball was seen

streaking through the

skies over Detroit

and Windsor, Ontario, moving

in a southeasterly direction,

allegedly dropping hot

metal debris over Michigan

and Northern Ohio before hitting

the ground near Kecksburg.

All sorts of explanations

were proposed.

Some thought they were

witnessing an airplane accident.

Others thought a missile

test had gone awry

or that a satellite was

re-entering the atmosphere.

The most common assumption

was that a meteor was

the brilliant light in question.

None of those, however,

seemed to square

with what was happening

near the Chestnut Ridge.

Local witnesses reported

feeling the impact

of the object's crash landing,

seeing a wisp of blue smoke

rising from the woods,

and some even claimed

to discover what it was

that had fallen to Earth.

An object shaped like an acorn,

approximately the

size of a small car,

with hieroglyphic-like

writing around its base.

The ravine in which it fell

quickly became the center

of curiosity and controversy.

And it got more exciting

during the evening as reports

were coming in that the

military was now arriving in the

Kecksburg area to search for

an unidentified flying object.
