Cigar over Cicero, IN
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
While driving on St. Rd 19 in Cicero, Indiana, I noticed an extremely bright oval shape in the sky. It was just hovering from the time I noticed it for about a minute. It then moved to the west before rapidly becoming a pinpoint and disappeared. The brightness never changed, just the size of the object until I couldn't see it. From the time the object moved until I couldn't see it anymore was a couple of seconds.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #144164). 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.
