As reported

Unknown over Ooltewah, TN

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

The report, as filed

I have a video that I recorded during the town's firework display. The object in the video was red and, upon slowing down the video and capturing a freeze frame, it appeared to be shaped like the Starship Enterprise from Star Trek. Most people might dismiss it as a "shooting star" when they see the video. Although it wasn't perceived as a threat and was never reported in the media, I'm not an expert on this matter. I'm simply making the video available for anyone to view and form their own opinion. In the attached video, it's between the 9 and 10 second mark entering towards the top right of the screen traveling to the bottom left of screen. [NUFORC annotation: Meteor - Possible]

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.
