Disk over Mirror Lake area, UT
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
We were camping close to Moosehorn lake in the Uintas mountains of Utah. We were camping Offroad in a remote area. Towards the direction of Mirror lake Utah, about 9am we saw a tiny white dot in the sky. It appeared much higher than the flight of any jets. 15x binoculars showed a concave bottom disk Shaped object. At first I thought maybe something like a NASA parachute or a weather balloon but after watching it for a half hr or so it was still in the area. It was miles high and distant to us but it was white and definitely had a concave (in the center 50%) base. We eventually went back to packing up camp and left. I’m still trying to figure out what it was. The day was clear and bright.

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.
