Asian mountain sightings became a table

CIA, Ladakh, Nepal | Sikkim, India | Bhutam, 1968.

This is a 1968 CIA information report listing sightings of unidentified flying objects over Ladakh, Nepal, Sikkim, and Bhutan between 19 February and 25 March 1968, including a reported disc-shaped object found in a crater near Pokhara. The geography is what makes it stand out, far from the American saucer panic. The account is secondhand and presented as a table, so it is useful as a map of where sightings entered intelligence channels, not as a solved case.
