Light over Salton Sea Beach, CA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
One orange light hovered soundlessly about 100 yards away. Another orange light joined it and the two went out over the lake to the east. they seemed to stop, regrouped, then disappeared only to reappear a minute later and seemed to be coming back toward my vantage point. No noise, just lights acting mysteriously. I managed to unprofessionally video three, three minute tapes.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #109445). Witness text is preserved verbatim, including its spelling; nothing is edited beyond formatting.
Ask for the records
What would the paper say?
For a dated, located U.S. sighting, FAA radar data and ATC communications are the records most likely to exist. Through Aletheca, the house instrument, anyone can commission the request — filed, chased, and published in the open, refusals included. The draft goes over already written: the records sought, and the date window they would live in.
