Disk over Rosedale, MD
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Bright hovering disc spotted in wooded area behind neighbor’s house. It was too low to be an aircraft and it was in between trees. The light was white but had a purple light in the shape of a sling underneath at one point. The disc was vibrating and at one point there appeared to be beams of light passing to the ground. I went to get my phone to take a pic and after I turned all the lights off in my house it was gone before I could get back outside to do so. I did observe it from 2 windows before it disappeared.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #174726). 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.

I pulled into my driveway to see a bright light turn to flashing and than bright again except it was purple. I began recording and the light that was blinking was hard to see with my eyes. I than went to get my girlfriend to come look it was in a different place, it hovered and got really bright than turn back to blinking and slowly flew off. In the video and picture I have you can see 2 more and all 3 are in a triangle shape
