Unknown over Shrewsbury, NJ
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
We were en route to an apple orchard in Colts Neck, NJ which was another 2-3 miles west, closer to where the object appeared. When we arrived, as we were parking, we spotted a single fighter jet scrambled to the area directly above us. We also noticed the fighter jet was flying at an unusually high altitude, much higher than we’ve ever seen before.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #159741). 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.
