Deputy Crew Commander Capt. Robert Salas and Crew Commander Lt. Col. Frederick Meiwald reported that ten Minuteman I intercontinental ballistic missiles under their control simultaneously dropped to 'No-Go' alert status as security personnel above ground reported a luminous object hovering over the front gate. The Air Force has acknowledged the missile shutdowns but disputes the UAP correlation. The associated communications logs were obtained through the Freedom of Information Act.
