Circle over Dry Fork, VA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I am a full-time homemaker. I was sitting on the steps of the deck, when I looked straight up into the sky overhead. What I saw was a large round object moving far above me at a relatively high rate of speed. As this object raced across and was sort of more forward of my sight than it was straight overhead, it turned completely red for just a split second and then absolutely...DISAPPEARED. To clarify it, I have to say that the object was 100% white light---there was nothing else to be seen (such as perhaps some type of framing); it was simply a round, solid white light, although it did not appear to be shiny.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #117671). 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.
