Light over Edina, MO
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Initial thought I was seeing geese flying in formation and under lit..so out of context. Realized there was no wing movement and it was a dark night. It was in a haze but looking directly overhead the stars were bright and clear. The object was moving slowly as in neutral in a WNW direction. The altitude I’m guessing was around 1,000 ft. After observing the object for 10-15 seconds, the lights suddenly went out and nothing could be seen.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #153797). 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.
