Light over St.Charles, IL
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I was laying looking at the sky from my window when i see a extremely bright light with a blue grey aura travel over my house and slow down to a stop in the sky above the road in-front of my house. It appeared to be just hovering for a few seconds and then went back the way it came faster than before to a place i could no longer see. it had such a strong bad presence that gave me the chills and all I could do was freeze.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #171179). 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.
