Sphere over Dobbs Ferry, NY
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I saw what appeared to be a white/blue luminate object around 20-30,000 ft up. It had the appearance of a star. However, would blink on for one second, then off for 8-12 seconds. All while maintain altitude but shifting from one location to the next. I counted one Mississippi in between links and confirmed the light on was 1 second duration. Light off was random 8-12 seconds
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #155586). 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.
