Unknown over Denver or Littleton, CO
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
On Sunday, Feb 12th around 1am, I saw a light too bright to be a star, plus it had blinking lights with reds/greens. It appeared to hover. I got my partner up to confirm that what I was seeing wasn’t a star. Then I saw it again tonight, but it appeared to be at more of a distance. This time I got the whole family up to see it. Could be a drone, but it would have to be rather large. Was visible for 15min before taking off at a high speed. Checked satellite map and there’s nothing in the area. I saw other reports in the area that are similar.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #174703). 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.
