Light over Hancock, MD
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
At approx. 9:18 pm my husband saw what he first thought was a shooting star. It suddenly stopped and stayed still. He got the binoculars out and noticed that it appears to be covered in green and red lights. He had me go out and look and that is what it looks like. My son could also see it from 8 miles away?
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #113843). 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.
