As reported

Sphere over James Island/Charleston, SC

A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.

The report, as filed

I was laying in bed just now shortly after midnight reading on the computer. All of a sudden I noticed an extremely bright white and royal blue light in the sky from my bedroom window. Couldn't have been more than a few hundred feet in the air. Both lights were moving in unison together in a Southeast to Northwest direction. I'm pretty sure it was one entity because the lights themselves were not very far apart from one another, maybe 10-20 feet from my perspective. The speed was constant and slow. Lights were both extremely bright, almost to the affect of looking into a cars headlights. I thought it was a helicopter at first because of the speed and low altitude, but it couldn't have been because it was completely silent. Very eerie feeling to witness something like this.

Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #113432). 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.
