Light over Cardiff (UK/Wales), WALES · United Kingdom
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
2 light sources that did not correspond with my usual view of the sky. Appeared to be moving very slowly, almost imperceptibly from North to south roughly. Within 1-2 minutes of observation they disappeared, the first to disappear was the nearest (SOUTHERLY) a second later the other winked out. 1-2 minutes later, two jets flew over at 90° flightpath to one another over most the exact spot.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #166575). Witness text is preserved verbatim, including its spelling; nothing is edited beyond formatting.

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.
