Unknown over Pawlet, VT
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I first saw a fast moving, bright white light object that streaked across the sky, My only explanation in that instant was that it was an asteroid ,but it didn't behave like one: no tail, no streak. My view was obscured by the mountain to see where it went. I immediately noticed to the left of where a red object/craft in the sky which changed colors. It went from all red to all green. I pulled over a little ways down the road for a better view of it and watched it head south through the valley. It moved straightforward and at a constant speed. At first glimpse it appeared triangular in shape.

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.
