Cylinder over Augusta KY, KY
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I did not notice this in the video until I was looking for some drone footage to upload to TikTok. The original video is too large to upload but there are no birds or anything in sight due to the time of the year. All of a sudden I see this flash of something and the more and more I watched it i'm like there is no way that is a bird. I'll let the experts tell me what it is but for now it's unknown. I added the sound to the vide to show when it appears. The first part is normal speed and the second part I slowed down to .25%. If you need me to cut more of the original video to fit a certain size to show more of the video before and after, I can do that.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #176159). 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.
