Unknown over Auburn, NE
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
We were at Fourth of July event when these objects started flying from our South sky and headed North West. They kept coming one after another up to about seven of them. Then a few minutes later, one came across the sky from East to West. They were a solid white or yellowish light all the way past us. Seemed odd for that many planes in a row to be passing over at night? No sound at all.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #120118). 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.
