Circle over Butler, MO

A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.

The report, as filed

Walked into bedroom to start getting ready for bed about 12:30, after all the fireworks around the neighborhood had died down. There are three high windows in the back bedroom, at 12:40 noticed a reddish orange sphere like object moving in a north westerly direction, visible for about 15 seconds, and then partially obscured by the tops of the trees for about 10 seconds. After that it wasn't visible anymore. There was no noise at all, the wind was not blowing. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #120487). 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.
