Formation over Corning, NY
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Wife and I on the deck smoking and saw two balls of light in a straight formation. Illuminated the clouds around it as it passed by. Roughly a football field long and flying low and totally silent. Duration about ten seconds. Yellowish, amber in color dim but bright enough to see. Traveling at a high rate of speed.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #117673). 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.
