Teardrop over Walter Hill, TN
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Saw what appeared to be seven different objects phasing from left to right at a very rapid rate. There were white and red lights on the top of the object with flashes of green. Craft continued to phase or jump to left to right for several minutes and then they all ascended rapidly, like within a second. After they disappeared, we heard a loud crash, like a sound barrier had been broken.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #137811). 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.
