Executive Summary	In November 2004, over 100 miles southwest of San Diego, the USS Princeton guided-missile cruiser and USS Nimitz aircraft carrier strike group tracked multiple anomalous radar targets descending rapidly from 80,000 feet to sea level in seconds. Two F/A-18F Super Hornets intercepted a 40-foot oblong white "Tic-Tac" craft exhibiting instantaneous acceleration and lack of flight control surfaces.	On the evening of Thursday, March 13, 1997, thousands of residents across a 300-mile corridor stretching from Nevada through Phoenix to Tucson observed an enormous solid V-shaped or boomerang craft measuring up to a mile wide silently drifting at low altitude, followed hours later by a stationary arc of amber lights over the Estrella Mountains.
