Circle over Fishkill/Wappingers/Beacon, NY
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Unlike Venus who shines the brightest in our Eastern sky, tonight my wife and I witnessed, photographed and videoed a circular object in the western sky, it was changing colors rapidly and quiet beautiful. I thought the first 20mins of observing/shooting that it wasn’t moving but then after going inside then back out an hour later I observed it moved East but maintained same height in sky. Also side note, 2 planes traveling in the direction of the object flew quite low.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #155568). 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.
