Navy Warrant Officer Delbert Newhouse Film 1952

On July 2, 1952, US Navy Warrant Officer Delbert C. Newhouse, a professional Navy photographer with 2,100 hours of flight experience and expertise in aerial photography, was driving with his wife near Tremonton, Utah when he observed a formation of bright disc-like objects in the sky. He retrieved his 16mm Bell & Howell camera with a 3-inch telephoto lens and filmed approximately 1,600 frames over 3 minutes. The film showed a formation of objects moving in formation, with one breaking away at extreme speed. The film was submitted to the Naval Photographic Interpretation Center, where analysts studied it for over 1,000 man-hours. Their conclusion: the objects were self-luminous, not reflections, not birds, and not any known conventional aircraft. The film was shown to the Robertson Panel in January 1953. Project Blue Book analyzed it. The Condon Committee reviewed it in 1967. The film remains one of the most-analyzed UAP films in US government history, and Newhouse's professional credentials as a Navy photographer gave his film unusual evidentiary weight.
