Unspecified over Aurora, MN
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Big lights turn on off in same position, 4 positions, big lights. Could not make out any craft but lights stayed in same position relative to each other, maybe 1/2 to 1 mile apart. First sighting was around Virginia, then as I was driving east sighted them again just north of Aurora where I got out of the truck and watched for 5-10 minutes. Reminded me of the report of the Phoenix lights.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #113198). 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.
