As reported

Sphere over Barberton, OH

A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.

The report, as filed

On May 31st 2014 at approx 20:30, coordinates: N 41° 02.462' W 081° 35.223' I witnessed an orange sphere shaped object that appeared to have sparks coming off of the bottom of it. It went from the Eastern Horizon to the Western Horizon before disappearing from view. I only had time to capture a short recording of the object on my cellphone camera before it disappeared. It took approximately 10 minutes to cross from horizon to horizon.

Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #109863). Witness text is preserved verbatim, including its spelling; nothing is edited beyond formatting.

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.
