Sphere over Jefferson, OH
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Witnessed a strange light in the sky over Jefferson, OH. I watched the "light" dance around the sky and change colors for over a hour. The sky was pitch black with no clouds in sight. I was able to video the object from my iPhone.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #122641). 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.
