Sphere over SWOKC/Moore, OK
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
At approximately 10:05pm I was looking at constellations through my binoculars and directly west I spotted a small plane heading east...upon viewing the plane I noticed a small white light come from the NW and it swooped under the small plane and proceeded to accelerate faster in a southernly direction. It made a curved pattern while coming from the NW heading South SE...I lost sight of it as it faded out. Night was clear no clouds. This is my 3rd report over the last 15 years of unknown anomalous objects flying in the sky near my home. We live close to an Will Rogers airport, this had to have been picked up on radar.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #164710). 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.
