Diamond over Cynthiana, KY
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
My 2 teenagers and I were outside in a rural area, on a sunny day with no cloud cover. We all saw a VERY BRIGHT reflective silver diamond shape just appear in the sky to our north west at a distance. It was free floating at quite a height and must have been very large close up. It stayed there for approximately 20 minutes, and then simply disappeared. It actually scared me, never have seen anything like that. I am ex Air Force and know what a plane in motion looks like. This was nothing like a military plane. Source of report indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #128918). 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.
