Diamond over Seneca, KS
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Latitude is : +39.768436 Longitude is : -9593377590 About 9 pm we were outside and looked into the sky to the southeast of where we were standing. There was a star in the sky. BUT as we watched it, it began to move. It moved left a ways, and then down a ways then back a ways, up a ways etc. In other words. Stars and planets sit in one place and don’t zig zag. This looked like a star but not sure what it was????? Can you help define this movement? I am not sure if it was ufo or not. About an hour later we went out to look again and it was gone. Sighting of star, we believe. We corresponded with the witness, and believe the star was Sirius. 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.
