Circle over Westlake, LA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Object looked like a circular craft that was flying and then looked like two engines were started to help it land. It started with a bright blue light and then changed to white as it looked like it was landing. It disappeared behind the trees. Looked really close but was probably miles away. There was no sound.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #114597). 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.
