Light over Demotte, IN
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
We were traveling in a car when we saw it out the windows. My father was driving and my mother and I asked him to stop but he only slowed down and then the light was out of sight in about 10 seconds. I could describe the intensity and color of the light as looking like those high intensity headlights with the bluish tint that we have all been blinded by while driving. This was no car though because it was up in the trees clearly visible moving fast along the tree tops in a straight line and there is not a road in that direction. The object emitted no sound.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #129034). 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.

When the other light went towards this light it looked like it left a trail of red. It glowed orange yellow and red now with looking to be lights. I stopped at a near by friends at this point and three other witnesses there also seen the smiley face mouth in the sky on 1100 N. All four of us watched it for approximately 10 minutes in the West, slightly North sky an object. It appeared in a different area from what I could tell at that point. Not sure. It appeared then disappeared. Until it descended completely still glowing orange yellow and red, bellow the tree lines with no visible lights on it then. Maybe landing.
