Circle over Keller, WA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I saw a big bright circle, about 8 times bigger than a star with like a halo around it and seen that it was moving. I watched it for a few seconds and seen that it went up and to the left some when an airplane came into view of my window, I could see this because the circle of light got smaller and went up. The airplane continued in a straight line to the southeast and the object followed it a short distance above and to the north of it slightly. The airplane went out of sight of my window and the object went to the north and up until I could no longer see either one from my window.

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.
