Circle over Pennington, MN
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
At 6:30 I’m the morning before sunrise myself and two others saw at first a bright white flash in the sky and at first didn’t know what to think. Then about 15 minutes later we saw two other circular lights (yellow) rise up into the the sky approximately 1000 ft, they sat there and hovered for a maybe 30 seconds then started to fade then shot across the sky at a very high rate of speed.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #150229). 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.
