A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Me and my sister went fishing last Sunday later that evening at approximately 9:49 PM we caught a fish so we were taking pictures of it well today I was looking back at the pictures I have live pictures and there’s something strange in the sky it’s round and it looks like a bunch of beams of light coming off of it and in the picture when you zoom in it’s also a spacecraft like he’s around it but the object you see very clearly is round I am going to send my live pictures I have of the craft

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.
