Cylinder over Hwy 168, CA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I slammed my brakes and exited my vehicle. I was approx 300 yards from me. I was in shock and a little afraid. No noises were coming from it. Behind me about a mile away was an SUV, I am confident they saw it as well. I drove away not believing what I saw.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #147027). 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.
