Triangle over East Hanover, NJ

A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.

The report, as filed

Partly Sunny. Junction Rt 10 and Ridgedale Ave. Near Novartis Building. Driving West On Rt 10 East Hanover. Saw a triangle to my right heading South very low and slow. Elevation 500 Ft. Speed 100 Mph. Craft Size 150 Ft each side. Shape was perfect triangle. I opened my drivers window, stuck my head out and looked up at the triangle as I was sitting at a light waiting. Deep Black colored on the bottom. No indication of landing gear seams or bomb door seams. In the center of the triangle was a round, recessed area with a White light. About 4 feet around and 4 feet deep. Brightness in the recessed area was bright but not excessively. Nothing remarkable was noted in the recessed area. There were no "marking" on the triangle and no sounds. I could not confirm any air turbulence emanating from the back center of the triangle. After passing over low and leaving my sight. I went thru the light and continued Westward. I saw the triangle from the back. The triangle not far from the Novartis Building probably less then 1000 Ft from the building. Almost dangerously close ! After passing thru the light, I saw the triangle one more time, banking at about a 20 degree angle and towards the West. By this time it was maybe slightly higher and about a half mile away. I did not get a long view of the top of the triangle as I was now driving in traffic. The top of the triangle was a dull grey, with slightly raised area towards the center. No cockpit or windows were seen on the top. There was no marking or lights on the top.

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.
