Light over Willimantic, CT
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I was on the couch and had woken up to use the bathroom. As soon as I returned to the couch and closed my eyes, I seen a bright flash so I immediately opened them.. I noticed a huge bright flashing white light traveling up the road. I got up and went to the back door and watched this light moving really slowly go up the street, it stopped for a second and then it turned around and traveled in the opposite direction. You could only see a bright white light when it flashed, other than that darkness. There we no sounds at all and no vehicles driving by. I figured someone was the source so I went outside to make sure there was nothing that could be causing the light. Once I realized it was super quiet there was nobody,and nothing was happening outside it made me a little nervous, but I also came to the realization that it was definitely a UFO. Upon googleing this light I found this website and decided to leave my experience.

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.
