Circle over Chaumont, NY
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Saw two or three objects high in sky while walking and they just disappeared. Shortly after saw a large glowing light hovering over pillar point, in the south sky. Object was quite large and similar to that of the sun in appearance. It would glow orange then not glow and a second object appeared and did same. This lasted about 45 min. Then both just took off without any sound and were out of sight in less than a second. Photos were taken. One thru binoculars.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #161622). 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.
