Cigar over Cedar Lake, IN
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Observed a cigar shaped object moving east to west at approximately 5000ft. The object was quite large and had 2 rectangle shaped lights on the bottom at either end of the craft which lit up for a second as the craft paused in the sky then when the lights went out it jump several hundred feet forward and repeated that pattern as it made it way across the sky. It was completely silent and flew directly over our location as all 3 of us looked up and tried to make sense of what we were seeing. Kinda flew like a rocket but no sound or smoke and flew parallel to the ground. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #147851). 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.
