Fireball over Dickinson, ND
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I am a truck driver seen bright flickering fireball dive almost straight toward the ground. It started out bright orange or amber and right before it disappears. It turned bright green. Object was quite large. Larger than a flare. Object was seen directly west maybe slightly southwest.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #125066). 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.

There was a cloud layer as well. The clouds were fairly low that night. Only reason I even saw it and was able to make out its shape. I was standing outside and staring out into the sky as I do many nights. The flying V just happened to cross in my field of view and caught my attention. It was visible for about 10 seconds before I lost track of it in the dark. No lights at all at any point, and no sound! Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD
