Ponce Puerto Rico unidentified aerial event — June 1, 1960

On or during June 1, 1960, at or near Ponce Puerto Rico, Puerto Rico, the source reports the following sequence: BRIEF SUMMARY OF SIGHTING: As object closely N of the sun, so close that it could only be seen by shielding eyes from the sun. (The object was not close because observation was through considerable atmosphere where it was shining like a bright star.) One source reported that it was approximately the size of a quarter at arm's length. There is a black and white photograph of what appears to be an unidentified flying object in the sky. The text describes the object observed in the sky on Wednesday, June 1st, and states that the object was seen by the personnel at the Hotel Ponce Intercontinental in Ponce, Puerto Rico. The document provides details about the object's appearance and behavior, including that it was observed for about 45 minutes and was seen reflecting the sun's light. Gentlemen: Could you tell me what the object was that I observed in the sky on Wednesday, June 1st? I am sure that we might never have noticed it except for the fact that it was glittering, and it seemed quite close to the sun. In the forty-five minutes we followed its course, it seemed to move away from the sun, as about 11:30 A.M. we lost sight of it entirely. Could you confirm what object we sighted? The planet was observed from the witnesses' home town.
