As reported

Oval over Seminary, LA

A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.

The report, as filed

I let my dogs out and looked directly across my back pasture. I saw a bright yellowish round to oval shaped light in the sky right above the tree line. It was surprising to see because a line of thunderstorms had moved through earlier and it was still very cloudy with light rain. It was motionless. It was bright enough to cast light out from around it as the moon does. The weather was windy and the trees were blowing obscuring my vision somewhat. My first thought was that it actually was the moon, but then I realized it was far too low for the moon at this time of night; also, I went back in the house to tell others (about 2 minutes), and when I returned, it had moved to below and behind the tree line. It seemed that it had moved down in a “setting” pattern as the sun does. I could still see bits of it through the trees because it was so bright. I went back into the house to report what was happening. When I came back, it was gone completely. We have amended the time indicated by the source, in order to reflect a nighttime sighting. Source of the report elects to remain anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

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.
