Light over Colbert, GA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Me and my fiancé were sitting on our porch looking out at the night sky and talking when between the trees I saw a light traveling from north to south and straight at us but at same time a slightly crurved path toward our home. It was traveling slower than an air craft and it did not blink. It was a pure singular white light. We ran out into the yard to watch it as it flew over our home. After it went over our home it continued to move upward into the sky and vanished in seconds. It looked a star but brighter and bigger.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #143465). 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.
