Other over Eldorado Hills, CA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
After the craft itself disappeared, it left a black circle in the sky where it initially had been. The stars then began to return, but it looked almost as if they were flickering. After a few minutes of this phenomena, the beams slowly began to dissapeared, and a flashing white and blue dot was left in the center of the black circle.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #143416). 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.
