Other over Altoona, AL
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
While star watching and satellite spotting, an orbital object passed over Blount County Alabama, from a heading of 324 degrees NW towards the SE at 144 degrees. The object had a luminosity about half as bright at the ISS and was moving at typical satellite speed. Twice the object came to complete stop in its path, made a large arc course correction, then continued on its SE trajectory until out of view over horizon.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #162656). Witness text is preserved verbatim, including its spelling; nothing is edited beyond formatting.

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.
