Changing over East granby, CT
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Seen at right around 10 pm eastern time. There was a small metallic shape (it’s dark but looked to be a different size when it started to move) about the size of a small vehicle. It was pretty high it the air but not as high as I’ve seen the airplane and jets fly near the airport where I live. The runway at the airport nearby faces northeast at around 50 degrees. When the object started to move, it gave off this streak of bright light that was tinted blue and white. After flying about a couple hundred feet with the streak following the object and the streak of light both disappeared. The area that this object flew towards was the east at about 87-90 degrees.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #170481). 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.
