Sphere over Adirondack, NY
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
We were on the east shore of Schroon Lake, on our deck, when a broght light appeared over the lake. It slowly came towards our position, then curved towards the northeast. It was a steady bright orange on color, completely silent, no blinking outboard lights. From our vantage point the object went behind some trees, turned sharply northwest, then simply disappeared. I have one photo, video did not record.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #147833). 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.
