Cigar over Ruston, LA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
We have never seen anything like it. No sound no contrails. It may have been a satellite but I've never seen anything like it. It was very bright but the sun was setting so it may have been a reflection off the satellite. I have never seen a satellite like this. It was cigar shaped with the chiseled front end. It traversed the sky in a matter of seconds. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #118140). 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.
