Cross over Maryland Heights, MO
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
The craft was coming from northeast to southwest, got close enough that we could see two blinking lights so thought it was just a plane, didn’t come close enough to be able to see clearly that it was a plane, blinking lights were not very far apart. I walked off our deck into the grass, looking away for maybe 5 seconds. The craft was nowhere to be found, skies perfectly clear there is no possible way for it to just disappear being close enough to see blinking lights.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #142361). 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.
