Teardrop over Spring City, TN
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
There was no smoke, no flames no sound. It was being followed by a very large helicopter. This sounds crazy but it disappeared.... There then gone. Coincidentally, it was in the immediate area of the Watts Bar Nuclear Plant. This was not out of the corner of my eye...it was directly in front of me. I should have reported it sooner but it sounds so crazy and I was actually kinda scared.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #124747). Witness text is preserved verbatim, including its spelling; nothing is edited beyond formatting.

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.

I LOOKED OUT MY FRONT DOOR TO SEE A GAPING AREA IN THE WOODS. THEN SUDDENLY A VERY LARGE SIZED FREEFORM SHAPES APPEARED LIKE A SAIL ON A SAIL BOAT, FLOATING ABOUT 5-20 FOOT ABOVE THE GROUND, THEN TOOK OFF INTO SPACE. THEN ANOTHER, OR SECOND LARGER FREEFORM SHAPE APPEARED ABOVE THE OTHER BUT LARGER AND MORE 3 DIMENSIONAL. BOTH ASCENDED BETWEEN THE TREES THEN ASCENDED HIGHER THAN THE TREES AND DISAPPEARED.
