Light over Oakley, UT
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
We live in a very remote area in the Uinta Mountains. A bright white light filled our bedroom waking my husband approximately 10 seconds before it woke me. The light got brighter and bigger before shrinking to one point and disappearing. The power went out to our entire canyon for 8 hours. 30 minutes after the light disappeared two military type jets flew low through our canyon traveling West to East. We were both too nervous to be able to go back to sleep.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #155280). 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.
