Other over Franz Josef · New Zealand
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I was taking 10s exposure photos of the Milky Way whilst visiting New Zealand and weeks after I noticed some strange light traces in the photo. I thought possibly the camera had moved causing the streaks of light but none of the stars are streaky which led me to believe these traces I see are anomalies.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #178846). Witness text is preserved verbatim, including its spelling; nothing is edited beyond formatting.

What would the paper say?
The NZDF released its UFO files in 2010; further records answer to the Official Information Act 1982. 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.
