Fireball over Eden, NY
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
While driving, we spotted 2 flickering orange (fire colored) spherical, slow-moving silent objects in the sky. Since I was driving, I couldn't get a good depth perception. I knew right away that they were the same things I had seen sitting on my deck a few summers ago only that time there were three and they were much lower. I would guess that they were larger than a basketball but not bigger than exercise ball. Both times, they were moving faster than the wind current and seemed directed. I never did figure out what they were and still can't.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #109841). 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.

I was waiting for the bus and its still very dark and I go to put my headphones on and I hear a loud Erie noise, almost like a muffled aircraft... I look up and just behind my house I see lights, as It gets closer I notice the lights make up a diamond shape particularly orange in color, very bright. I stand there confused, thinking to myself im looking at a UFO. Few seconds later, I can faintly see a black mass (only because the clouds were in the way of the moon and illuminated the sky a bit) just enough for me to make out a very hard to see dark object. At first I thought it was a stealth bomber but then as it pasted over my house I saw that it was moving very very slow, the sound get louder, brights lighter and the shape of the object is more appearent and I just keep thinking about it. About 5 minutes later I see a light rise in the sky and start heading my way SAME EXACT THING, don't know if maybe military trading by my house or something bigger
