Sphere over Port Murray, NJ
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
A black round ball. Shiny. Moving very slow below the clouds. Faint aura that looked almost electric. No sound. The black color was unusual. It moved with a slow glide and not like a machine. It went from west to east and I watched for a good 3 min.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #145107). 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.

I wake up early naturally every morning between 3 and 5 am. I lay there a bit before I wake up, look out my window from bed or look anywhere out my back yard, there is a woods border outlining my yard. So I have a sort of big circle opening above me to the sky, but the view is enclosed by trees. It’s an odd amount of sky (small) over an acre to see 7 orbs that would be standard planes and they were moving slow but still too much to be stars. Over a minute or two they stayed in the same vicinity but slowly faded away (not like how planes do typically). One stayed bright for a minute or two after the others then did the same. Ten minutes later the sun started to erase the darkness of the sky. I woke my husband who sleeps later than me for work and he wasn’t even bothered I woke him because he was wondering what it was once he saw. I wish I had more to add but they were the standard circular lights one sees with orb photos. We also live near the national guard.
