Circle over California City, CA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Just a simple circle (solid), white in color, stationary NE of my location. Event lasted about 15 minutes then just vanished. Looked like a white dot in the sky after sun up (broad daylight). Not a weather balloon. Weird. I don't even believe in this stuff.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #157421). 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.

I was driving around 3:30am from Los Angeles to Mammoth and when I was on Highway 14 north just past California City, a bright neon flash of light zoomed overhead in a split second going the same direction. It seemed quite low to the highway just above the car going very fast and made no sound at all. It looked as if a green glowing ball of light zoomed the same direction north over the highway above my vehicle. There was only one other vehicle on the highway behind me by half a mile. The only reason I noticed that bright green light was because there were no other vehicles on the highway and it was dark. Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD

At just before 9:30 pm in California City, California I observed a large aircraft moving very slow coming from the west very low with bright lights. It looked long with a bright light and a red smaller light. It flew over Cal City Blvd. very slow and hovered a moment then vanished over Castle Butte. Re-entering space debris. PD
