Sphere over New Albany, OH
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
My son was taking out the trash to the curb on Wednesday evening (March 25, 2020), at dusk, around 8:15pm. He was looking up at the sky checking out the stars and noticed a bright white object way off in the distance (orb shaped - like a star) just above the horizon where the sky separates between dark and orange - facing West towards Worthington, Ohio. The object was a bright orb shape and he noticed it was out of place considering other things in the sky (it wasn't moving). He took a picture of it with his iphone (will send image) but no video unfortunately. He looked at the object for about approximately 30 seconds and then the object took off at a 45 degree angle (heading South)toward space and was gone in a blink of an eye. He was visibly shaken when he came back into the house.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #154569). 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.

8 spheres fixed in the sky and 2 off to the right as I was driving home on 161 around New Albany area. They did not move and i tried to watch them as long as i could but i was driving . I did see them behind me for a few seconds. Guessing they were few hundred feet up. Each was a glowing orb type thing. They did not look very big but I really can’t tell
