Sphere over inola, OK
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
The light blue white orb zipped straight down to what appeared to be maybe 400 or 500 foot then zipped up at an angle till out of sight. We were on top of my hill where you can see most the town pointing to where there used to be a big light up cross you could see from miles away while I pointed there that’s when it happened right in front of us 3.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #170347). 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.
