Circle over Cornwall, NY
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Was with my partner at around 9:10pm looking south at the stars in our backyard. I then saw very far away what I thought was a shooting star begin to move rapidly in a way that a craft/star would not be able to move. It was a circular object in the night sky. It moved very rapidly up in the sky, stopping then moving up again very quickly, shot to the left, then went down, then disappeared. This occurred within 10 seconds.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #177054). 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.
