Flash over Windsor County, VT
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
For the last 3-4 nights, I am awakened with a very strong beam of light coming through a window in the ceiling of my condo. It lasts about 3-5 minutes, and then seems to move off. I have not contacted Manager of condo, which I will do. (( We spoke via telephone with the witness, and he corrected the time and date, which we have amended above. The witness describes himself as a former sebuir military officer, with a great deal of time in service. The witness added that the light appeared to be like the shaft of light from a flashlight, and adds that it was bright enough to wake him up from a condition of sound sleep. PD))
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #116529). 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.
