Rectangle over Unionvale, NY

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

The report, as filed

I was driving down on a mountain road when I saw a rectangular craft low in the sky directly in front of my car. This is a remote area and I would have heard it if it was a plane but there was no sound. It was a dull gray but glinted in the sunshine. It was not moving like any aircraft I’ve ever seen; it just seemed to be hanging stationary in the sky. I slowed my car but rounded a bend where trees obstructed my view. I knew there was a clearing around that bend and pulled over when I reached it because it would give me a clear sight line. I got out of my car and turned around to see the craft without tree obstruction and it was gone. It wasn’t more than a minute from my point of vision to arriving at the clearing – how could something that big just disappear from sight when it didn’t even appear to be moving?

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.
