Light over Glenwood, ME
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
We were with a large group of family in July 2020. We were staying on an island in wytopitlock lake, glenwood, maine. Some family members were on the beach around 10:15PM when they spotted a light in the sky that was moving at a very fast and unpredictable speed. These family members called over to others who came down to beach and saw the same phenomena. One member was able to take a video (see attached) where you can see a bright light in the sky that is not moving in a straight line like a plane, this object was dropping and rising at a very fast speed and also flew away at an unexpected speed.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #170854). 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.
