Formation over Lincoln Boro, PA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
At approximately 20:00, two women were standing outside talking, when they notice strange orange lights glowing in the sky. The lights were in a circular formation with approximately 3 following. No sounds were heard during his time. Sky was partly cloudy but relatively clear and calm. The light began to move toward the northwest, disappearing one by one and then vanished. A helicopter with bright red lights shortly followed at a high rate of speed. The helicopter was also traveling at low altitude.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #137151). 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.
