Light over Salina, UT

A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.

The report, as filed

I thought I saw a shooting star, then realized it was below the mountains west of me on I70 exit 74 facing west. Bright light which from my perspective looked baseball sized traveling south to north crossing my line of sight within a second or two.

Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #123102). 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.

Salina, UT

My roommate was walking outside at about 10:35PM, when suddenly she saw, going from West to East, what at first she thought might be a meteor, then thought it might be a plane crashing. She soon realized that it was neither because it quickly went back and forth, up and down, and at one point straight up. After watching it for about 5 minutes, she told me to come outside and look up in the sky, and I saw it too. The object appeared to be sort of a diamond-oval shape, low in the night sky. The lights, which were larger than plane lights, didn't flash-the object appeared to be rotating its red, green and white colors. Sometimes it moved very fast and it was also stationary once. It darted about only about 1/4 to 1/2 mile away from us and I believe it went as high as at least 1000 ft. I watched it for about two minutes, when it suddenly went in a downward direction and we didn't see it again.
