Circle over Poi pu, HI
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I saw this object after I took a photograph of a sunset outdoors in Kauai. It is a live photograph, so touch the photograph, and you’ll see the object move quickly around. Enlarge it and look at the detail of it and it sure looks like a foreign object!
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #173694). 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.
