Cone over Evanston, WY
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
My son and husband were outside talking to our neighbor when my son tried to get my husband’s attention and look at something. It didn’t sound too urgent, so he did not look. After a few minutes, my son said he saw a UFO. He came inside and drew a picture of it. He described it as looking like an ice cream cone with lights around the top of it. When asked the color of it he said it was metal colored. It made no sound.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #112394). 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.

Fires burning out uintas, seen one object shooting star like that entered atmosphere and left quickly. The other three were hovering pretty high in the atmosphere going left right and up and down. Then there were searchlights looking from the ground up in the sky, like they were looking for something in the sky.

Sunday, November 11th at 6pm, I witnessed an aircraft outside my window. It started from the south, then headed East. It was bright white, and was moving in a way that was completely unlike a plane or a satellite. I naturally took out my phone and began recording. A few moments after I did this, the craft turned red. I shouted "HELLO" out my window, as I did so, the craft stopped moving completely shined bright white, then it startes towards me, then back on the path it was taking originally. I was able to capture this moment on camera, my video is posted on YouTube for the world to see. On a side note, when it started towards me, I was able to see underneath it. The craft looked circular. For some reason, source of report indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD

At 7:20pm MST, I looked outside towards the west of town, and saw a white orb. The light was over the rooftops of the houses nearby but was probably about 5-10 miles away. I jumped in the car and left Evanston heading southwest when I realized there were two orbs...the original one higher in the sky, and a lower one. Both orbs were moving southwest and a slow speed at first, then faster. I gave chase in my car, and stopped at a lookout ridge about 8mi southwest of town. The lower orb was gone behind the distant mountains at this point, and the higher orb stayed in the lower sky for 15 minutes. It was orangish in color and brilliant. The higher orb eventually went below the distant mountain range. They were heading in the direction of Ogden, UT. I tried to take pics with a digital camera, but due to the dark sky, it picked up the ORB out of focus.
