Light over Mountain Top, PA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Was looking in the night sky at stars and seen a light moving from north to south. Light was only white and there was no flashing lights indicating aircraft. Thought it at first to be a satellite due to the speed it was moving but it was only white and not changing colors like satellites I have seen before. I looked on-line to verify it was not the space station and seen that it was not supposed to be passing over at that time. I watched the light go from north to south for about 30 seconds, and then it went into a cloud and did not reappear.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #134367). 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.
