Sphere over La Broquerie (Canada), MB · Canada
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Noticed a strange bright light to the east in the middle of the night sky when taking dogs outside. It was pretty far away and had a pinkish red glow to it. Started watching it and noticed it was picking up speed rapidly then slowing down. Then it started to zig zag left and right. It was doing really sharp U turns, and travelling different distances between each U turn. Sometimes it would rapidly speed up immediately after a U turn. I could see a light trail when it would speed up. It was not moving uniformly or in any sort of pattern. Got girlfriend and she watched it for awhile too, but didn't think it was a big deal because she said she had seen it before.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #159374). Witness text is preserved verbatim, including its spelling; nothing is edited beyond formatting.
Ask for the records
What would the paper say?
Canadian military and radar records answer to the Access to Information Act; historic UFO files are held by Library and Archives Canada. 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.
