Unknown over Willard, NY
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Was walking out of work and have little way to walk towards the end of the building I work. 2 bright white lights caught my eye, because they were low and flying fast. Then all of a sudden they split in two one left and the other went right, the speed when they split and was so unbelievable fast, I have never seen anything like that and was in amazement that they could move so fast like they did, wish I knew what I was looking at because I would have tried to see some sort of shape.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #128321). 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.
