As reported

Sphere over Tamworth (UK/England) · United Kingdom

A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.

The report, as filed

My wife and I both witnessed yesterday evening three spherical, bright orange unidentified flying objects. We viewed the objects with high powered binoculars and they were exactly as described, spherical, bright orange flying objects of considerable size, certainly larger than a commercial aircraft. These rose up, hovered for around one minute and then flew away. They were definitely under control. Last year I reported a very similar sighting in March 2020, the only difference is that last year we witnessed only one unidentifiable flying object but it looked very similar in every way. We didn’t manage to video record the objects yesterday as they moved away before we could set our phones up to record but yesterday we did view the objects with binoculars. I will attach the video that I submitted last year by way of a reminder, and if you expand the image then this is exactly what we saw again yesterday evening but there were three such objects.

Ask for the records

What would the paper say?

UK sighting reports were handled by the MoD's UFO desk until 2009; later records answer to the Freedom of Information Act 2000, earlier files sit at the National Archives. 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.
