On 4 July 1964, flares were reported over Clearwater, Florida. Dr J Allen Hynek and Dr Jacques Vallee suggested that the US Air Force intentionally dropped the flares and then requested information from members of the public about six “mysterious” red lights seen in the area. Dr Menzel suggests the flares were dropped as part of the Fourth of July celebrations.
