Light over Netarts, OR
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
While on the beach around 21:15 looking north from Happy Camp towards Seaside, OR. We noticed 4 red lights going south around 100 feet apart and maybe 1 to 1 1/2 miles up. They started to turn and go back North when they got to Neterts Bay, at this point they started to get closer to each other and 2 of the 4 lights joined together. At this point the 2 that joined became brighter. The 3ed light was about to join with the first 2 and those lights went out of sight going North back towards Seaside followed by the 4 light. The whole thing lasted maybe 7-10 minutes.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #148549). 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.
