Light over Twin Sister's Lakes, WA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I bright white light came from the southeast 1/3 of the way across the sky. I thought it was a satellite, but my boyfriend said it was going way too fast and too high in the sky to be a satellite. As we watched the light stopped and reversed a short distance. Then it made what appeared to be an obtuse triangular path. Then shot off to the south and disappeared.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #160093). 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.
