Circle over Lilburn, GA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
My husband and I were driving west southwest. The bright ring of light appeared towards our right making it to our north. It started about two tree heights above the tree line and descended rapidly at about a 15 to 20 degree slant from vertical from our perspective. It appeared quickly as a flash of brilliant white which changed to a bright white-green and I saw a little blue. It left a trail of bright green behind it that faded to white quickly before disappearing. The whole incident was over within 2 seconds. No sound was associated with this bright meteor (if that is what it was). My husband reported that he thought it was more of a ring than a ball. I couldn't verify the exact shape seeing that I was driving.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #160348). 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.

Large, white plane like craft with no visible windows, but very skinny. The end of the wings pointed upward and there were two very small engines on tail. It was moving very slowly directly in front of my car and seemed very low for its size. No noise but I was inside my car with windows rolled up. The way it was flying was very strange because the wings were moving in a way that looked like it was floating. I suspect it was some sort of drone but I am unsure.
