Light over Woodland Township, NJ
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I was driving by myself on rte 72 at approximately 1:47 note it was dark and no one on the road, when I immediately looked into my rear view window because a bright light came into my view. At first I thought it was a car. Then I watched it rise up from the trees with multiple lights flashing. An instant of fear came over me. The object started following me. Fear to get away, I drove faster, it then stopped following me. And rose up and disappeared. I experienced that it took forever to go down this road. I no it never takes that long.

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.
