Light over Defiance, OH
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I was driving North on State Route 637 and I saw 5 small white points of light in the North. There were 4 white lights shaped like the points of a box with one white light above the top. As I got closer to the lights, suddenly all 5 whites became one light. It started moving East. I turned on a side road to take a picture with my phone and the light was nowhere to be found. The entire experience was visible for approximately 10 minutes. All the lights were round in shape.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #149626). 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.
