Other over Joppatown, MD
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I saw this object while viewing the ISS live feed, taking several screen shots. If you look close you can see a smaller craft in front of it and a trail through the clouds behind it. I sent the images to NASA, asking what it was, and they responded by giving me a different email address to send it to, but they did give me a case number. I have re-sent the images twice to the new email they gave me, but have yet to hear anything.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #125959). 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.
