Sphere over Spring City, PA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Driving home and close to my house, I saw a red sphere or light traveling at about 2500 feet. It caught my eye because it seemed faster than a helicopter or small plane. Definitely was not a commercial airliner. It was moving NNE and had no anti collision lights or any other lights around it. It was at a 40 to 50 degree angle from me and made no sound which I thought I would hear compared to my lifetime experience. I always watch the sky and am very interested in all aircraft. The only thing I can speculate is that it was a low flying private jet that did not have any lights on except one red light. Still it was silent.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #143639). 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.
