Unknown over madison, WI
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
30 foot craft moving slowly about 15 feet above the trees almost drifting -- this craft made no sound I could not even hear air moving around the craft. Very very quiet no sound no motor. The lights were beautiful colors- yellow, white and red and surrounded the craft in a straight line. Moved west to east and then turned to the north. The lights seemed to flash lighter and then darker. They did not blink. The part that struck me is how low the craft was and how many lights were on the craft. I hear helicopters all the time around my neighborhood -- there is a hospital close by so they are loud and move fast. This moved slowly and was very low in the sky.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #167123). 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.
