Sphere over Greenfield, MN
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I'm laying in my bed and I look out to my window and I noticed a object that presumably looks circular and has red yellow and white lights in a non distinct pattern heading West I open up my window and try to listen for a sound in the best way I can describe the sound is a low pulsating humming sound and it's very faint and it gets fainter as it gets away and then a plane not too far behind it comes to light but then I can hear the sound of the plane and barely the sound of the aircraft

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.
