Oval over buffalo junction, VA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I was travelling home to run some errands at lunch around 12:15 on Hwy 58 east bound near Buffalo Junction. I saw a silver oval shaped object flying left to right across 58. I was watching it while driving and when it got directly over 58 it disappeared. Completely clear blue skies. It was probably 1/4 mile ahead of me so if I had to guess the size I would say about the size of a compact car.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #175556). 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.
