Summary

At 9:23 p.m. on April 14, 1953, the crew aboard a U.S. Navy patrol plane conducting a classified ELINT (Electronic Intelligence) operation during Korean War had an unsettling encounter with the unexplained. Moving silently through the air at nine thousand feet, the aircraft initially noticed a light in the distance that appeared to be signaling to them using Morse Code. Over the hour that followed, the crew found themselves in the middle of a strange series of engagements that could only be interpreted as an aggressive display toward their aircraft by objects of unknown origin. 

This week on The Micah Hanks Program, we explore this little-known Cold War-era incident involving a U.S. Navy spy plane's classified mission that led to an aggressive encounter with unidentified aerial phenomena, as well as its implications to the history of the subject and similar military encounters then and now.
