Circle over Westwood, MA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
My friend sent me a video of the event. Unfortunately it was sent through an application where the video disappears after it is viewed, and he did not save his original video. What i saw on the video was a bright light in a circle shape flying across the sky being followed by two jets. My friend later confirmed that they were not jets following the ufo, but helicopters. The event did not last more than 20 seconds as the objects was moving. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #129438). 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.
