Cylinder over Avella, PA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
It was a two tone silver and grey in color. It never seemed to move. I watched it for over 8 minutes. I turned my back to finish working at the site I was at and when I looked back up... it was gone! No where in the sky. Without a trace.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #159046). 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.
