Circle over Brian Head, UT
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Round, white object (no lights) in sky caught my eye while cross country skiing...it moved on a straight course and then turned quickly back the other way and then slowed way down...very odd. I have a short iphone video of the object, where it seems to be not moving, but not of the maneuvers that I had seen previous. When i got home I looked up airships...but have no idea if anything can move the way this thing did.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #147703). 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.
