Light over Sea Isle City, NJ
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I was looking East out into the ocean (under the nearly full moon) and saw a bright red light. It disappeared, and re-appeared several times but in slightly different locations. It then looked like the light was bleeding or leading into the other appearances; and then it was gone.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #129935). 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.
