Light over South Los Angeles, CA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I sit into my car to start it up to warm it up for my way to work. As I am sitting there. I glance up to see the sky because of reports on the news that we might have rain that evening. Sky is crystal clear, not a cloud in the sky. 4:42 all of sudden I see what seems to be a shooting star. O big deal but then I notice a second object directly below it traveling at the same speed and in sync, when all of a sudden they both make a sharp turn and speed out and fade out into the distance. CRAZY!
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #118273). 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.
