January 2, 1975, Kauai Sands Hotel, Kauai, Hawaii.
On 2 January 1975, while vacationing in Hawaii,
Michael Lindstrom and his wife observed a strange square-shaped object flying
in the cloudy sky above. It was 14:45 and they were lying on the beach at the Kauai
Sands hotel on the east side of the Kauai Island, when Mrs. Lindstrom spotted
the unusual object in the sky.

Close up of the craft
She watched it for about 45 seconds as it moved slowly
down the beach towards her, and then ran down the beach to where her husband
was taking pictures and pointed it out to him. It was close enough then for
them to see it very clearly.

It emitted no sound as it moved slowly, at about the
speed of a helicopter, and diagonally to the direction of the wind. Its shape
when viewed from below was that of a square. The center was white or silver in
color and it had a black stripe around its perimeter. From the side it appeared
to have a dome on the top and bottom. There vaguely appeared to be a row of
lights along its upper edge.

It was difficult to determine its altitude exactly,
however it was observed below the clouds and above the mountains. It was
estimated to be at about 5,000 feet and one mile distant. Lindstrom estimated
its size to be about 25 feet from point to point, and it was traveling with one
point forward. The UFO passed about one mile inland as they observed it for
about two minutes and took 3 color slides on fine grain Kodachrome II film.
