Fireball over Lakewood, NJ
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
On October 24th 2015, I was sitting near a window around 7pm when I saw strange orange glowing object flying in the sky followed by 2 more. They did not look like planes nor helicopters. There was no sound either. I called my family to see and then 3 more came when the previous vanished in the sky. After 10 minutes again we saw just one more and then it stopped.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #123221). 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.
