Light over Aurora, KY
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
My friends and I were on a boat on Kentucky Lake. I first witnessed what I thought was the bottom edge of a cloud reflecting light. It was a line of light in the sky. I pointed this out to my friends and we observed it begin to grow and move. Then we thought it was a meteor. It was moving to slow and not behaving like a meteor. The line of light then faded from the front of the direction it was spreading.

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.
