Ellsworth Juliet-05 Landed Object and Missile Outage
One summer night in 1966; exact date not givenEllsworth AFB Minuteman missile field, South Dakota, South Dakota, United States
Albert Spodnik told Hastings that while his maintenance team was restoring Juliet-03 after a power failure, radio traffic reported nearby Juliet-05 had also gone off alert, lost commercial power, and failed to start its generator. A Security Alert Team then reported a round metallic object on tripod-like landing gear inside the fence. Spodnik personally reported seeing the distant site glow and later a brilliant light ascend; no official documentation is presented in the book.
