Sphere over Elmont, NY
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
A single golden colored, circular UFO was perfectly still, relatively low in the sky. I have never seen something stay so still and so low in the sky before. The sky was fairly overcast and the object was visible underneath the clouds, so it was not a star or planet. I kept checking back every 10-15 mins and it still remained in the sky. The sun rose right at its location and it was still visible. Never seen anything like it!
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #157212). 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.
