Disk over Ragland, WV
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
What I seen look to be a round disc like object that was a glowing bright light. It hovered in the same area for maybe 30 seconds to a minute then came down in a circle and back into the clouds and disappeared in a high rate of speed as it went back up.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #111409). 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.
