Changing over Stoninigton, CT
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Noticed from my deck to the south over Long Island sound at about 10:30 PM in the evening. About 10 o'clock high, excellent visibility. At first 2 lights side by side, quite bright. appeared to be stationary. After about 10 minutes merged into one and gradually got dimmer but stayed in the same location. Checked for it on subsequent nights to see if it was a satellite that is always present. Nothing visible on other nights.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #142992). 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.
