Cylinder over Many, LA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Was running boat north bound and noticed the object stationary over the lake. It was not moving and was extremely bright. Took a photo then it slow faded away as if it got further and further away.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #170606). 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.

While walking home across the street from a neighbor’s house, my wife saw a white cigar-shaped (with one pointed end) object up in the sky to the south. She watched it for a few minutes. She said it looked like a jet with no wings or exhaust moving rather slowly (but it wasn’t a balloon). I called the sheriff department, but no other sightings were reported. We are sharing this story in case there are other sightings of a similar object.
