Pokomoke Sound, VA being encounter — March 7, 1990

A report at Pocomoke Sound, Virginia, is dated March 7, 1990, at approximately 7:20 p.m. The Hatch catalogue describes a very low saucer-shaped object, an opening dome, and small humanoid figures making gestures. Its compressed wording identifies two children and additional observers, without providing a complete witness list. The entry also associates the event with a radar malfunction at Wallops and labels the effect electromagnetic. The available digest does not include a radar log, equipment examination, operator statement, or the timing needed to connect an instrument problem with the visual encounter. Its bibliography points to the MUFON UFO Journal. The reported observation and the claim about radar should therefore remain separate evidentiary elements. No taking or onboard experience is described. The plate reconstructs the coastal observation, with anonymous people and indistinct figures; the marsh, detailed craft outline, lighting, and exact gestures are artistic choices rather than recovered photographs.
