Light over Berlin Township, PA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Light was very bright and flickering it looked sort of like a star. It twinkled consistently about 20 feet off the ground for about 5 minutes then moved diagonally up and to the right through a strip of land recently cleared of forestation. It hovered about 35 feet off the ground in the strip of land that no longer had trees (there is a significant tree line behind it, so it couldn't have been "something in the distance") then it just disappeared. It was a small object, but it was not a flashlight or a drone. It was creating its own light but it wasn't lighting up the area below it or around it. Total time of incidence was 20 minutes.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #166788). 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.
