As reported

Other over Gallatin (town of; Red Hook zip), NY

A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.

The report, as filed

Our neighbors daughter age 47, was outside with their dog when she called to her mother age 72, and pointed out a large Boomerang shaped object in the night sky. The Boomerang shaped object was flying slowly from NE, to SW over our homes. The altitude was difficult to say she said. The mother recalls that it took up about a foot of the night sky when she was looking up at it. The mother described the object as having white lights on the front leading edge surfaces, slightly swept back wings like a boomerang with a red light on the center edge and nose area. The Object was silent. The mother thinks there may have been 8 lights on each side, with a large red pulsating light in the center front. The object was silent as it moved across the night sky she said. One side of the Boomerang was lower then the other side and the object flew with a tilt of about 45 degrees, red light forward. Mother and daughter became frightened and ran into the house to safety. Her verbal account was told to me on 02/21/2016. The Mother and Daughter came to visit me at my home which is across the road to tell me about their sighting. We live in a rural area without street lights. The weather that night was clear and the outdoor temperature was 32F. The two women wish to remain anonymous. I'm reporting this sighting for the women as it was told to me today 2/21/2016.

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.
