Circle over Deer Park, AL
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I was outside smoking a cigarette talking on the phone. I was watching a circular, green and white flashing thing in the sky to the northeast. I watched a torpedo shaped/ orange fire colored object emitted from the bottom of the circular object and went straight down towards earth. I then couldn’t see it as the trees blocked my view the closer it got to earth. Then my dog ran in that direction and was barking.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #175781). 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.
