Light over Ogalala, NE
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
We were observing the stars on a camping trip and noticed two large yellow/orange lights floating about 100 yards from each other they remained level and appeared to turn- similar to a submarine. The lights were much closer than the stars appeared, they moved very slowly, about 5-10mph before it turned disappearing. The lights disappeared one then the other into nothing.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #142155). 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.
