Light over Nowata, OK
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Driving home from coffeville to nowata, its a dark drive and I window watch, noticed an amber light in the sky expected it to go out of view but it stayed in exactly the same position the entire drive, husband saw it too, seemed to have a smaller light just behind it, this too , no movement just hung in the sky, i thought it might be a tower but.. it would have gone from view but this held its position for entire 30 minute drive from town to town. No flashing, no fading, no other lights, just hanging there, i even checked to see if it was a reflection from something in the truck, negative. My husband pulled over and I opened the window and pointed to it so it was no reflection…. Was still in the sky as we pulled in, but off in the distance.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #174069). 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.
