Oval over Olympia/Nisqually Valley, WA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Children were playing outside at various places around the house and one child yelled to look and all children present saw a blue/green flash of light with a glowing white v shape surrounding it. It moved right left right, a zig zag before it left at high speed, much faster than anything else they have seen. All children ran into the house immediately and all shouted the same description. One child described the size equivalent to 4 -6 full size vans, and hovered approximately two cedar trees tall. The object also flashed a bright yellow flash before it left. The children said it made no sound.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #121091). 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.
