Unknown over West Stockbridge, MA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
It was a very clear night and I happen to a solid white light moving towards my direction through my back door. I did not see any flashing lights at that time. I lost it behind the trees for a few seconds but then recorded as it came back into view. It then did two quick bright flashes, took a couple dips unlike an airplane would be capable of. Honestly after that I was too afraid to keep watching!
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #158519). 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.
