Light over Vance, AL
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Bright white light moving from south to north at a significant rate of speed. It did not have blinking lights, or sound. It was too low to be a satellite, it seemed to be flying at an altitude similar to commercial aircraft. The object was as bright as Polaris, moving fast, without sound. I have a short video of the object.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #142313). 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.

Very noticeable light seen over Vance/Mccalla area. Red/orange in color. Shifted brightness not periodically. Disappeared twice, first time for about 40 seconds, second time for about 10 min. When fading out it appeared more red. When viewing craft I saw multiple aircraft (with obvious lighting such as one white light and flashing red and green lights) that helped with judging distance. Craft seemed to be hovering at 5000 feet. Sometimes appearing to be chevron shaped with one smaller ball above it or at times just one ball. Probable sighting of Mars, we susptect. PD

One light came and disappeared about three times in a line directional pattern, then came back on really faint, and shot out at a 90 degree angle till it disappeared. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD
