Teardrop over Alvaton, KY
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
At 15:31 while watching the stars, my dog gave an awful bark, then the neighbors' dogs started barking. I went to the front of the house and saw a white cloud like object slowly descending. I was astonished I ran in and got my girlfriend, her friend ((female name deleted)), and a couple that we are temporary custodial parents of their children they were visiting. So 6 witnessed and I have video, pictures, and conversations of it. I had a flash on my phone and when I flashed it it got brighter! I still can't believe what I saw!
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #130704). 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.
