A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
The 4 of us were heading out and my two friends saw it first. We are all college students and were going for a spontaneous night swim. They said it was red at first but when I looked it was a golden orange color. There were two way brighter than stars or airplanes dots in the sky. My friends saw circles but I saw saucers. They illuminated then dimmed on and off again. They circled one another, so one would go on the bottom and the other on top. They kept doing this until they finally completely disappeared. I was shocked, I’d never seen anything like it.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #155105). 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.
