Light over Bluefield, WV
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I was on my way to work travelling through Bluefield WV exiting US Rt 460 onto John Nash Blvd when I looked up and saw a really bright object in the sky. It was almost like a really bright star ... brighter than Venus and it was already daylight ... I reached down to grab my cell phone and opened the camera app and zoomed in .... when I went to take a photo the craft was gone and there was a small circular vapor ring in the sky that vanished shortly after .... possible portal ... on the other side of the horizon were two jets flying ... could not tell f they were commercial or military

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.
