Light over Marion, OH
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
2 big solid yellow lights and 1 blinking Red and yellow flying around a radio or cell phone tower on Route 23 at the rest stop near Owens road East bridge. 1 solid one flew over to the blinking one that was stationary. They both became stationary. Then a 3rd one appeared out of nowhere. It was solid until it reached the other 2, then flashed Red, yellow and white. No flash pattern. Then they all flew around at slow speed near a commercial airline following it, then left at high rate of speed. We thought one of them was going to crash into it. But didn't.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #121223). 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.

I was trying to take a photo for the moon and stars. It was falling straight down. As I was taking the photos I thought I was photographing a falling star. After processing the photos I realized it was not a falling star but an object that had lights on both sides and a small light on the back. I only seen the object for approx. 2 mins before it was gone.
