Oval over holderness, NH
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
was called over to window by my dad who was not in mood for talking and was falling asleep late in a work site cabin of him and i. forested in, barely any folk that live near, over the lake i see a bullet shaped glow hovering in the night sky with white rays increasing in size trailing, beaming outward. HUGE GLOWING STREAKS ACROSS ENTIRE SKY TOWARD THE BACK. Bullet/triangle thing moves considerably and so smooth for aircraft and then boom disappears. All the light that at this point covered half the entire sky just disappeared.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #173908). 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.
