Light over Beatrice, NE
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
After it flashed there was a small dark floating dissipating black cloud. I believe my passenger saw it too, yet didn't say anything either. Meteorites don't leave a dissipating "puff-cloud" of black smoke.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #142450). 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.

Just a number of lights in the sky doing 90 degree turns. Just darting around going in a north to south direction.

Was discussing My take on how UFO or UAP's work to my Neighbor and i said they would probably cause a light show from High energy to create some sort of Polarization of a vacuum, just thinking outside the box I suppose based off of Salvatore Pais's Patent if they were any true. He then grabs his phone and shows me this video and says he has more video's like this. I'm not sure of what to think of this object it looks like it stretches when it moves at the 3 second mark and my neighbor is no software guru. He's an average Nebraskan Mechanic so I believe it's beyond him to make this up.
