August 10, 1944, captain Alva M. Reid piloted the B-29 bomber based in India (more precisely in Kharagpur), on a mission over Palembang (Sumatra), when his right gunner and co-pilot noticed a sphere "probably five or six feet in diameter, very bright and intense red or orange", which is constantly pulsed. She was about 12 500 feet on the right wing. The object followed the B-29, and then flew with a speed of 210 miles per hour. In eight minutes he made a sharp 90 degree turn, accelerated rapidly and disappeared in the cloudy sky.
