Circle over Drexel Hill, PA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Driving back to the office I noticed two spots in the sky. It wasn't until I was stopped in traffic that I realized that they had not moved. I brought it to my associate's attention and he said he noticed the same thing. The sun was setting to the left of them. They were circular in shape. They had a glow to them much like clouds would with the sun behind them. There were no clouds in the area. They were vertically straight and did not move apart or closer. They were too big to be stars but much smaller than the sun and moon. The objects did not appear to move for the 4 minutes we drovein that direction. After making a turn and losing sight in some trees, we could not locate them again. Nobody else I talked to saw anything.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #116430). 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.

Looking towards Philadelphia, we saw four lights drifting down from the sky as if they were connected to parachutes. Please let us know what it was! Witness provides no contact information. Possible hoax? PD
