Light over Barstoe, CA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Noticed a light high in the night sky while taking out the trash. No sound or navigation or collision lights emanating from the object. The night sky was over cast and the object was below the over cast. It moved very slowly and finally disappeared in the over cast. I label this as a UFO and this is a first for me.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #175880). 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.
