Diamond over Gig Harbor, WA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I witnessed 2 diamond shaped hovering objects, multi colored lights, in the sky's above Purdy, WA. They are either quite small, or very at a very high altitude. Much too high to be drones. They held their hovering location for at least 30 minutes, so they are not satellites. Their shape may have been due to the location of the lights.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #160982). 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.

The object was the size of a large star. It was blinking and pulsating rapidly, and it was changing colors. It emitted all colors of the rainbow. It was not moving, and a shape could not be discerned. It could be mistaken for a star, but I have never seen a star behave this way. [NUFORC annotation: Planet/Star - Probable]

Three people on bikes were stopped on trail pointing up in sky. My friend and I walked toward them and asked what they were looking at. They pointed to a single stationary light in sky—larger than a satellite, round and visible in clear daylight sky. The light pulsed slightly, disappeared for about a second, then reappeared in same area but relatively far away in a short second. The movement within the same quadrant continued, shifting randomly down and left, up and right, with no flight path. It was just holding position within and area and quickly moving, disappearing and reappearing. We watched for about 3-5 minutes, then continued on our walk

It was out in my front yard I looked up at the sky because it was a clear night and I though I saw a bunch of “stars”. Shortly after staring for some time, I noticed a small cluster at first of maybe 10 lights moving around next to each other. And then I looked over more and saw a formation of lights in a big triangle shape. I continued to scan the sky and noticed all those lights were ufos and not stars. There had to be at least 60 or more clusters of ufos in the sky. They were all moving slowly across the sky, with some changing colors. It was dead quiet too. I’ve seen a ufo before, but nothing like this. It almost seemed like an invasion.

On March 25th 2021 at 9:50 pm I was sitting in my car at the Olalla Beach in Washinton State on the phone with a friend. Suddenly above my car appeared a large UFO. It was black with lights all over it with no markings, there was no sound and it just hovered over the front of my car for about 15 seconds about 30 feet in the air. I can only describe it like a peice of black tourmaline, abstract and mostly recangular but resembled a crystal rock shape and not like anything I have ever encountered before. I would say it was aproximately the size of a semi truck. I opened my car door and got out to take a photo. I was in awe, I had to just observe it for a few more seconds. It began to move very very slowly towards the Saratoga Passage then up and over the Olalla bridge. Still no sound and slow movement with lights flashing all over the object. I tried to take photos while it was above me however my cell wouldn't work at the moment. I watched it go from above my car ! after appearing below a tree line on my right side, as you will see in my day picture I took today. This craft did not fly in above me, it just simply appeared. I am sending you a photo of the scene I took today in the daylight and from the right you can see the treeline. It appeared above the water, then flew to the left out to the sound towards Seattle. It moved up and over the bridge that you can see in the night shot I was able to get after it moved further from me. It dispersed into orange round lights and continued to fly off to the left with no sound at a snails pace. After going to the site today I took a panorama of the area and realised that it flew right through the power lines hanging above the Olalla Bridge. I am just now reporting this because when I tried to talk to a person they told me to fill out a written report and that the phone lines were too busy for him to be able to talk long and that this had been reported from California, Oregon, and all u! p the Washington Coast. It was amazing, astonishing and I obs! erve the night skies all the time and have NEVER ever seen a UFO like this one.

Hello Mr. Davenport, At approximately 11 am Pacific 1800 GMT from our backyard in Gig Harbor, WA, we saw an object high and to the west reflecting silver in the sunlight. It appeared to be 50,000 ft+ MSL altitude and drifting from west to east. I assume it was somewhere over the southern Olympic Peninsula. I went into the house and got my camera with a telephoto lens and took a closer look and it revealed to be something like a high altitude research balloon. I am a professional pilot with 50+ years in commercial aviation and 17000 hours of flight time. I send this to you so as to give my opinion of what I saw in case you receive similar reports of this object in the sky. I look forward to your weekly reports on Coast to coast AM. But, I am a little bummed out in that I thought this was going to be my first ever UFO sighting. Best regards,
