Light over Ocean Island Beach, NC
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Walking on the beach, my husband and I saw a bright orangish yellow light in the sky. There was one light that flashed twice like a lantern in the sky. It would brighten in the sky as it shone, kind of like a firefly or a halogen light. The light appeared in two segments where it flashed twice at first, then about 15 minutes later we saw the same light with another two flashes. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

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.
