Light over Lyman, NE
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
One large bright light seen in the sky, west of Lyman, Nebraska. Light was seen bobbing up and down, as well as drastically veering from left to right every few moments. Movements seemed random. One smaller light came from the north and joined the larger light in the west.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #143019). 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.
