Fireball over Robinsonville, MS
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
There was no flashes sounds or impact noise. Two of us just happened to look East (everyone else facing west) and at first I thought it blew up like a firework but it was silent and fell vertically-happened so fast our brains couldn’t register it before it disappeared behind an apartment roof. Everybody thought we were lying! But then I told my friend yesterday and she finished my sentence-two of her Snapchat friends saw the same on the same night, one lives in hernando and the other in Southaven-idk how large it was for them but it WAS HUGE - very close looking to us here.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #174511). 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.
