 memorandum
                SG1A a. (S/SK/WNINTEL) Source #03 confirmed the occurrence of an explosion on-
 which was described as similar to extremely brilliant lightning
 inside a thunder cloud in the evening. Source.#03 stated substantially as follows:
 A group of people, males and f emdles were observing an occurrence involving a large area
 above ground. They were observing from a distance (not further identified). It created
 brilliant, intense, pure light and light colors (not further identified) and the
 physical sensation of "something neither solid nor liquid rushing passed" (not further
 .identified). The military (not further identified) were interested in this project
 11to see if useful applications exist" (not further identified) but civilian representation
 and control was extensive (not further identified). Something about the occurrence
 (rocket explosion) was unexpected or unanticipated, perhaps occurring earlier than
 expected or the effect was more pronounced than expected (not further identified).
 Source #03 provided no further amplifying information in response to your request.

 SGlAc. (S/SK/WNINTEL) Source #21 confirmed the occurrence of an explosion.on
 which was described as being a very large event involving bright
 glinting light in radiating rays. Source #21 stated substantially as follows: An event
 was brought about in a "civilian/military scientific environment" (not further identified).
 Two (types!) of people associated with the event had differing perspectives. One was
 purely scientific and looked at this (event) as the beginning of future possibilities
 (not further identified), while the other was more concerned with the tactical/strategic
 ramifications (not further identified) and the effects it (the explosion?) could
 produce on others. Source #21 provided no further amplifying information in response to
 your request.
