Light over Ouchita National Forest, AR
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
While travelling down Hwy 27 at 1am, my wife and I both noticed a bright white spherical light appear in the sky and it remained motionless for a few seconds, but appeared to become brighter. After a few seconds, the light changed turned a brilliant blue green and darted out of sight at a rate of speed I have never before seen. It's worth noting that 10-15 minutes before the event and for several miles there were so many deer in and on the side of the road we were forced to slow down to allow them to all move. During the sighting and moments after my wife and I both felt heavy as if the gravity had changed and my mind went to a weird place.

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.
