Sphere over Prattville, AL
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Two friends and I were out riding a few dirt roads near my house and looked up to see what appeared to be a partial rainbow in the sky, just west of the sun. Upon observing it, we noticed a small orange sphere to the left of the "partial rainbow", and just above the tree line. I assumed it was venus reflecting light of the sun. I took several photos of the unexplained objects, but it wasnt until I got home that I realized the orange sphere had darted upward about 200ft,and then shot left 1000 ft just below the partial rainbow! Once it was located below,the partial rainbow turned almost WHITE it became so bright, then the sphere was gone!

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.
