Light over Morganza, MD
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I happened to look up and stare for a moment at the stars and noticed one the stood out the most. So I kept checking on it every few seconds and it always kept getting my attention. So when passing by the hills store there's a farm like a little bit passed it and I happened to slow my car down to look at it and then noticed how it was moving faster than any normal plane that I see and then as k kept looking at it I watched it just zip off and didn't see it anymore. The object was far away enough where I couldn't see what it actually looked like but from my location it was green no blinking lights and round and moved at very high speeds. We spoke via telephone with the witness, and he provided us with additional information. The date is approximate, but he reports that the sighting occurred in "mid-January." PD

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.
