Circle over Guemes Island, WA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
White circles with orange circle centers (only distinguishable when viewing with binoculars), looked like small dandelion seed heads to the naked eye, traveling at uniform rate of speed across the sky over a period of 20 minutes. Three followed the same line two took different paths. Two were visible at the same time and three by themselves. When viewed with binoculars the white perimeter looked fuzzy.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #171328). 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.
