Light over Woodstock, GA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Light, similar to a star, shot across the sky at an incredibly fast rate and then disappeared. Very low in the sky, much lower than a shooting star or plane/helicopter. Light was steady and white like a star, but did not dissipate when it disappeared, just turned off. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #130990). 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.

I was speaking to my husband on the phone, driving south-bound, when I suddenly noticed 3 bright white flying objects high in the north eastern part of a clear blue sky. When I first saw the objects I thought that they were meteors headed towards the earth. On closer observation, 2 of the objects were flying horizontal while a third separate object underneath them seemed to be free falling towards the ground. After a few seconds, I quickly ended the call and I took a few photos of the objects on my Android. The objects fell out of my view behind the tree line located to the east of the road. I believe the objects were far from me due to the lack of definition.

The witness, and adult female, reported to NUFORC over the telephone that she didn't think the object was a meteor. It was a distinct red color, she reported. PD

While taking pictures of a complete rainbow, I started zooming and suddenly I noticed two floating sphere like objects. After making the zoom, they seemed to have like an energy source surrounding them. I showed it to my daughters and immediately I tried to take a video but when I was focusing, they suddenly vanished.

Standing in the driveway with my girlfriend talking and smoking a cigarette when we look up through the tree line and see a bright flash of light. Just thinking it was lightning we ignored it, until I saw it 3 more times. We stayed outside for another hour until we went to get her mom. When we told her about it and she saw it she tried to pass it off as lightning but there are no clouds in the sky. She then told us that she saw the light when she was dropping s friend off 2 hours earlier. The light is in the same spot not moving just continuesly flashing consistently at 39-41 seconds per flash. We also noticed that there was an abnormal number of planes out. We started counting and counted 6 planes in 5 minutes all in the direction of the object and one flying low directly overhead.

A ball of light randomly appeared out of nowhere. Just as quickly as it had arrived, it was gone within a blink of an eye, as I saw it shoot up into the sky.

So, I stepped out of the garage out of curiosity, and saw a plane that was a triangular shape. It had lights on the bottom of the plane and i figured that was weird. I had never seen a plane so lit up at the bottom, let alone triangular. I saw it for about a good 15 second, then it just disappeared. That's the thing about it too, I'm not a plane expert, but if the plane was that low. I figure its getting close to landing but the speed was pretty fast.
