Unspecified over New Holland, PA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
All of a sudden a bright circle appeared to the right of Orion. It looked like a very large full moon when covered by a thin cloud. There were NO clouds in the sky. I heard no noise and saw nothing go up or down. The bright circle just suddenly appeared. It grew larger, seeming to come toward me, but as it enlarged, it began to dissipate and within a few minutes nothing remained but what appeared to be a thin wispy vapor. A few minutes later another large bright circle (just like the first one) appeared to the right of where the first one had been. It too grew larger and appeared to be coming closer to me, but began to dissipate, and within minutes only a thin, wispy vapor was visible.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #113060). Witness text is preserved verbatim, including its spelling; nothing is edited beyond formatting.

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.

I love looking at stars every night when they're very visible. This night I was on back porch, sky was clear. It zoomed past stars at fast pace. Not a plane!

Me and my friend were driving along when I looked up and saw this hovering light over this small mountain/hill. What I saw I can sure w
