Unknown over Tracy, MT
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Saw a beam of white light less than 70 feet off the ground about 50 from the side of the road driving home with my wife. Light was a perfect cone shape beaming in a field.there was a road 1/32 of a mile down the road I watched the light in my mirror and when I turned to look at it it was gone. I rolled down the window to listen because I thought I might have been a helicopter, but it was nothing but silence. Tomorrow I am going to look at the field where I saw the if UFO see if there is anything out of the ordinary.

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.
