Triangle over Verona, NC
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
At aproximately 21:15, My wife and I were headed east towards highway 17 on high hill road out of Verona, NC, when I saw a singular amber light and thought to myself, "What planet is shining so bright tonight?" It then turned into a tight triangle of 3 lights then left of it the same pattern of lights appeared, and then to the right. Then simultaneously disappeared. It's a clear night. These were NOT military or civilian aircraft, and definitely NOT flares from either aircraft, artillary , or morters. I have spent 15 years on active duty and know my aircraft. This was NOT anything I recognized.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #110345). 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.
