Chevron over North Mankato, MN
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Watching the stars through binoculars. Black, silent chevron, triangle flew into my vision. It went north to south. The underside of it had 2 lights on either side and one at the head. The lights were not on or were very dark. Looked almost like the undercarriage of a stealth bomber. Was totally silent.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #130382). 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.

On June 17 at about 11:00 or 12:00 in North Mankato, Minnesota, I witnessed a red glowing orb hovering in a tree about 100 or 150 feet from my house. I was looking eastward and it was on the west side of the tree. I witnessed it for about 15 seconds, it was standing still and pulsed brighter two times, then it quickly flew from the tree southward leaving a red trail of light about 10 or 20 feet long and disappeared all together. It was hard to tell the size of the object as it was illuminated, but i would guess it could have been the size of a golf ball at the smallest and no larger than a basketball. These are the google maps coordinates exactly where it was 44.17xxxx, -94.03xxxx We spoke with the source of the report, and he sounded eloquent and sober-minded, in our opinion. We suspect his is a good, and reliable, witness.
