Sphere over Orcutt, CA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
We witnessed a procession of 12-14 bright white orbs traveling from South to North in the Western sky. Each orb followed the last at the same distance, speed, and trajectory until disappearing from sight. The objects had no blinking lights and made no audible sound, moving in a linear path across the sky. Female witness background: law Male witness background: Journeyman electrician Location: backyard,15 miles inland from Pacific Ocean, looking West. Orbs moved from South to North.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #156153). 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.

Object in sky at night which appeared to be flashing red and possibly green or blue. It was still and hovering for about 10-15 minutes. I then check on it again and it moved to a different location and kept hovering.
