Cylinder over D’Iberville, MS
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Saw a cylinder shaped metallic object approximately 5000-8000 feet up in the sky. It hung in the air, not moving in any direction. The sun shimmered off the side giving it a metallic sheen. It had no wings or control surfaces on it. It also did not rise or fall. We watched it for about 5 minutes but had to leave.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #161405). 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.
