Triangle over Monument, CO
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I saw a black object moving about 1000 ft above ground. It made no sound and I thought it might be a paraglider. It sort of floated across the landscape. I could hear jets also but did not see any. That noise did not come from the object though. Object was triangular and black and looked a little like an angel (2 wings). I watched it move west to east and looked away for an instant and it vanished. It was not scary, but I am not sure what it was. This happened in a rural area.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #147671). 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.

Highly reflective surface at 10,000 ft appeared and disappeared several times. It moved too far too fast to be any type of aircraft. - I know this isn't much to go on.
