Light over Mountain View, AR
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
out in an area with no light pollution. Incredible lights shooting across the the night sky then dissapearing. Also small lights traveling at different times and in different directions, these made maneuvers that turned quickly at high speeds but these were constant and went until out of sight. Very far away.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #158303). 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.
