Circle over Cozad, NE
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I'm in the town of Cozad. Object appeared to be within 10-15 miles. Hard to tell. ((ADDENDUM FROM WITNESS)) I had one misspelled word (fround, meant ground) Was nervous forgot to mention speed was beyond anything like a known aircraft Was 1000 mph or more imo. Traveled almost like a smooth or fluid type slight wobble. Hard to put in words. ((END ADDENDUM))
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #143588). 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.
