A quick search - the photo with the capital building an ufo’s is lens flare - and taken years after the 1952 event. The 1952 event DID have something unexplained on radar, planes were scrambled, and orange fireballs and disks were observed:

From the net:

The summer after The Day the Earth Stood Still was released, however, Washington experienced an incident that may have made some people wonder if the movie was totally fictitious. Just before midnight on July 19, 1952, an air traffic controller at Washington National Airport spotted seven unidentified objects on the radar screen, about 15 miles to the southwest of the District. “Here’s a fleet of flying saucers for you,” he jokingly told his supervisor, according to a newspaper account. But officials became alarmed when a second controller at another facility revealed he not only had the objects on his screen, but could see “a bright orange light” through the window of his control tower. Shortly after that, an airman at Andrews Air Force Base reported seeing a strange orange ball of fire, similar to what one of the controllers had described, followed by a second ball. At 12:30 a.m., one of the objects buzzed a runway at National, and another controller got a glimpse of it. He described it as an orange disk, and said that it hovered at 3,000 feet (914 meters) over the airport before disappearing. Military jets from a base in Delaware were scrambled to chase down the apparent intruders, but the objects just as mysteriously vanished, though just before dawn, another witness again briefly saw what he described as five large disks, flying in loose formation.

I correlated the departure point, end point, and time using Google Earth to calculate the approximate speed of 50MPH.

I think it's of terrestrial origin but not birds.

"Ground Clutter" Nothing more; nothing less.

Happens every evening around almost all radars -- unless the display is filtered to eliminate it.

Good grief, Chicken Little!

Lower, slower DE is beautiful. A little flat, with lots of farms, and beautiful beaches.

A short hop on the ferry from Lewes to Cape May, NJ.

Low property taxes and no sales taxes.

People wave here—a lot— and they use all five fingers when they do.

Church is still a big thing here.

Very conservative, unlike the rest of DE.

Been here 9 years from NJ, and love it.

Shhh-don’t tell anybody!

I think it’s something else other than birds of terrestrial origin. something not well understood and rarely seen.

” Looks like a flock of birds to me.”

Kinda what I was thinking, but being a hick country boy, I’ve never known a flock of birds flying toward a storm.

Yes, that’s what I remember learning about that part of the state, from Dover south. It’s Wilmington that’s the real arm pit IIRC.

It is the return of the strong signal from the NW coming in on the radar narrow azimuth antenna back lobe. 180 degrees off and same range rate.

"Apparently benign alien emissaries show mankind how to end the misery
of war, plague and famine. The Kanamits, nine-foot tall aliens, arrive on
Earth with one lofty goal: To Serve Man. They end war, they end famine.
They make the military wonder: what's the catch?"

I think if Washington DC, LA, and NYC were nuked it would make a vast improvement in the country

Well I just don’t know what it is. Maybe just a system glitch, nothing physical in nature.
