Light over Randall, MN
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Red, blue and white lights flashing in different circular sequences, at times only one to zero lights. Craft may be circle shaped or the lights are placed in circular formation. Seems to be moving slowly in the same area almost as if standing still but without any noise. Appears to be 15 miles to the east. Possibly above the city of Little Falls, MN. Possible government craft or drone? Heard helicopter for short time, but could not see one, less than a minute. This is not a helicopter or airplane. Very large drone or other craft. Looked thru binoculars. Never seen a craft pattern like this.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #132222). 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.
