Project Blue Book Case #1097. On April 5, 1952, a bright object was observed over Miami, Florida — the second Blue Book unknown from the Magic City (following Case #1483 from July 18). Miami's subtropical setting, Homestead AFB's SAC bombers, and the city's position as America's gateway to Latin America made it strategically significant. The case was classified "Unknown."
