Fireball over Dousman, WI
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Seen white/yellow bright light in sky hovering. As I was driving south on Hwy 67. Hard to see shape, was a bright glare. Not a plane or helicopter. As I got closer, light just went out, like someone turned off a switch... Seen this around same time, a week before.. Pretty sure it wasn't one of those candle lanterns either because it wasn't moving what so ever.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #122389). 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.
