Cooperstown, North Dakota – In 1952, a respected figure in North Dakota’s legal circles, Peter Olai Sathre, experienced something extraordinary. Known for his roles as the state’s Attorney General and a Justice of the North Dakota Supreme Court, Sathre was more than just a successful attorney and politician.
Born in Minnesota and moving to Dakota Territory as a child, he carved out a notable career in law and politics, becoming a well-known and beloved figure in the Peace Garden State.
But it was during the summer of 1952 that Sathre’s story took a turn for the mysterious. Newspapers at the time were abuzz with headlines like “Flying Saucer Seen Locally on Saturday!”
According to reports, Sathre had just left Cooperstown, heading towards Finley in his car, when he spotted a flying saucer. He described it as “about six or seven feet across, and silver in color,” flying approximately two thousand feet off the ground, although he admitted it was difficult to be certain.
Stopping his vehicle, Sathre, with his grandson’s binoculars in hand, observed the saucer for about ten seconds. He watched as it zoomed east at a remarkable speed, then turned south near the Sheyenne River.
With his legal background, Sathre provided a detailed description, likening the shape of the object to “a sauce dish, that is wider than it was thick.”
This sighting by such a credible witness adds a layer of intrigue to the already mysterious phenomenon of UFOs. A true sky-high mystery, the encounter of Supreme Court Justice P. O. Sathre with a flying saucer remains a fascinating chapter in the annals of the unexplained.
