Circle over Monroe, CT
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
We looked up and saw a bright light in the sky moving very slowly and upwards. The light was circular and in the sky. It did not look like a plane and that is what made us think it was a UFO. It continued to travel over our heads instead of in front of us. We realized it had suddenly started moving very quickly then it literally made a 90 degree turn extremely fast and started moving in the other direction. It was moving extremely fast and was high in the sky and looked very odd. We took a picture of it and when we tried it ended up looking very odd, almost like ripples on the water.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #136571). 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.
