Light over Rocky Point, NY
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Around 11pm tonight my boyfriend and I were standing outside smoking a cigarette in the street. I was facing southeast when the sky illuminated a greenish/teal color everywhere for a couple of seconds. It lightly strobed; through the trees I quickly spotted a bright green/teal super fast moving light shooting Northern possibly slightly westward in the sky that disappeared just as quickly. It looked distant because of how fast and how quickly it stopped and disappeared. My boyfriend says he did not spot the light because he was facing me, and it disappeared too quick, but confirms the whole sky turned bright greenish. We were both awestruck. Perhaps it was a meteor?

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.
