Light over Ravena, NY
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
We were driving south on I-87 and were almost entering Greene County but were still in Albany County. We saw a bright light to the East most likely close to the Hudson River. It was stationary and not completely symmetrical. As we approached it going south it did not move or flash. We went past it and almost under it. A few miles up the road we entered the New Baltimore Service area, got out of the car and looked to the north. There was no sign of it.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #126358). 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.
