The report, as filed
Was up in my cabin atop of Bearpen Mt ,NY to see the stars as i always do , a bright light about 2500 to 3500 ft high with no sound at all ,coming my way from Roxbury and said what the hell is that , i yelled to my girl, babe get out here now, and said look as i pointed . The very bright lit was still moving towards us and stopped and seemed to drop down , it made a 45 degree turn toward Bearpen Mt, my girl said it looked Bell shape , I was very amazed how bright it was , have been searching to see if anyone else had seen it, but to no avail as of now. I have never in my 40 years there have i ever seen anything like it , i have seen alot of things in that sky and all can be explaned , but this was nothing i have ever seen , still bugging with it .

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.
