Sphere over Port Ludlow, WA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Orange ball coming from north to south in sky, about size do dime at arm's length, traveling very slowly and with no sound. It was so unusual I ran outside onto the front porch in my bare feet to see it. There was no sound, it was flickering orange, there were NO red/green port starboard light. When it reached to the point of being overhead it slowly dimmed and disappeared. A second one showed up following same track and also dimmed after passing overhead and disappeared. Shortly after an aircraft passing by to the west was completely audible and identifiable as a plane went by to the west. What we saw was not a plane, it was not a meteor, Don't know what it was. Tow observers, first saw it from inside the house. Lasted about 15 minutes overall, 10 minutes between. Witness provides no contact information. PD

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.
