Cylinder over Carroll, OH
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I was outside and I looked up and saw a high altitude airplane going overhead. As I was watching it, this white cylinder shaped object (smaller than the plane) was flying behind it, spinning in all directions, following at the same speed as the airplane. Then, it sped up getting closer to the airplane. As soon as it did, it veered off to the left and it flew out of sight. I didn't hear any sounds other than the plane.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #149683). 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.

I was outside and I looked up at a high altitude airplane and as I was watching it go overhead, this cylinder shaped, all white object was flying behind it. It was spinning in all directions. It was behind the airplane, somewhat far back, going the same speed. Then, it sped up and as soon as it was at the plane, it veered off to the left and flew out of sight. I never heard any noises from it. It did seem to have a cloudiness form about it.
