Bright object observed near Oak Ridge at Lake City, Tennessee (1955)

Project Blue Book Case #3862. On November 20, 1955, a bright object was observed over Lake City, Tennessee (now Rocky Top) — a small community approximately 25 miles northwest of the Oak Ridge nuclear complex. Lake City's proximity to Oak Ridge extended the pattern of unknowns in the greater Oak Ridge area, adding to the multiple cases from the nuclear facility itself and the nearby Knoxville sighting. The case was classified "Unknown."
