Oval over Turner, ME
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Saw a oval object with 3 very bright round yellow lights. This object was about above trees in an area that also has fields. Was right at dusk, but still light out. It hovered motionless until I lost it behind the trees as I was traveling in my vehicle. Was so bright that others on the road had to have seen it as there was very heavy traffic at the time.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #138776). 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.

My toddler thought she spotted a bird and pointed to myself and her mother a football shaped object passing just below the high-thin cirrus cloud layer. I observed the object as I observed many in my 20 year military career at sea. This was not a drone or hobby grade RC… as I am an RC pilot I can confirm that with certainty. The sunset backlit the object so it appeared nearly black in color but a few times a “shine” or “gleam” of light could be seen. The travel speed and trajectory were very deliberate. The altitude was high and the object was going at least double the speed of a commercial airliner. No wings, no mechanical motion and no exhaust were present. No noise what so ever was heard. We watched from horizon to horizon as the object passed from roughly southwest to northeast (left to right) across our view.
