Rectangle over Benbrook, TX
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I heard a strange noise outside my house and quietly stepped outside as to not scare off whatever was making this faint coughing noise. I stood there for about two minutes silently observing and waiting for any movement. I immediately noticed a dark cube shaped maybe rectangular object overhead moving south at steady pace. After about 4 maybe 5 seconds I could no longer see the object. It did not make any noise. I have not seen anything like this before. I did not observe any lights on the object which appeared to be dark in color and was not easily seen in the night sky.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #154179). 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.
