As reported

Unspecified over Arden Hills, MN

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

The report, as filed

My father, brother, and I were sitting in our living room when a bright flash illuminated our entire backyard and interior of our living room. The light was bright blue and had the quality of a spark, as if a light bulb had burned out above our house. This was definitely not a flash of lightning as it was too close to the ground and the form of light didn't resemble lightning at all. There was no sound when the light occurred.

Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #135581). 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.

Arden Hills, MN

I was driving to work this morning, heading south on 35 W, taking the Hwy. 10 east exit to the Hwy. 96 exit. At the stoplights there, I saw what looked like a typical jet airplane heading over the Hwy. 10 bridge in a northeast direction. Today was a perfectly clear day with no clouds in the vicinity. The craft appeared for maybe 5 seconds and then vanished out of sight. This is the third time that I have seen a cloaking aircraft in the past two years. Because of past sightings, if I see a flash in the sky I pay attention and do not assume it is a 'regular' airplane. Frankly, I think there would be more reports on these sightings, if people only would pay attention. I believe most people are desensitized to air traffic and a prime example of this was about a year ago while at a stoplight on Co. Rd. C and 35 E around 3pm, a black hawk helicopter was so low to the ground that you could feel its breeze. Everyone around me in thier cars just sat there as if it was a normal day in the neighborhood. I am perfectly sane, I might add. We have entered the date of the sighting, assuming that the event occurred on Wednesday, May 31, 2017. PD
