Light over Genoa, NV
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Had to take my dog outside early in the morning a little after 5am when still dark outside. I looked up at the night sky to see two groups of at least 20-30 bright white lights in a straight line. They were moving across the valley in a straight line formation. I couldn’t hear anything. It was a silent night. The lights were very bright and small, a little bigger than the stars. But I could tell they were lower than the stars and it appeared to be 20-30 in a row following each other. After it moved across the valley sky it disappeared.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #162171). 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.
