Light over Oakland, KY
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Saw a stationary light to the south. Almost looked like it was trying to break into smaller lights. An airplane went into the same vicinity and when it got close the light just vanished and never came back. What we thought was a star just disappeared and I know stars don't do that. It never came back. We have been seeing a.strange light everyday at dusk.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #124710). 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.
