Other over Atlanta, TX

A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.

The report, as filed

I stepped outside and saw a single light approaching. I thought at first it was the ISS but as it got closer I saw it wasn't. It was shaped like a plane and it was totally silent. It had a light in the center of it. I watched it a few minutes and then it vanished from view. I also saw the object again the next night or so. There has also been low-flying, large aircraft and increased helicopter activity in the area since my sighting.

Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #175897). Witness text is preserved verbatim, including its spelling; nothing is edited beyond formatting.

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.

Atlanta, TX

It was 22:28 Thursday the 14th this March. I was waiting outside for my girlfriend to show up, and I looked up to take in the night sky. I’m used to aircraft flying over the area, it’s semi remote, and off towards the Bivins area (south and slightly west of where I was) was a grouping of six lights. 000 000 At first I thought it was a drone, or some sort of aircraft, because Barksdale AFB isn’t super far, and they have a lot of aircraft down there. I watch it kind of slowly make it way south west, still not sure what to make out of it yet, and then it suddenly turns a sharp west, and slightly increased speed. That was when I figured out that this wasn’t some formation of craft, but a single, seemingly large craft, because the way it turned was like a zero turn mower if you improved their turning radius even more. The observer is an Army Veteran, and College student, majoring in Business Administration.
