Rectangle over Springfield/Columbus/Wrightstown, NJ
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Box shape moved quickly over 537, then hovered in place for while. We tried to drive to where it was and lost track because of the trees. We did get it on video though, hovering in place in the storm clouds.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #147392). 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.
