Light over Dulles, WV
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Upon leaving Dulles International Airport and as I was headed to my car of the parking garage at 9:29 PM, I observed and erratic moving light shaped like an elongated oval darting through the sky. I took a video of it because I was fascinated by this random object. During the video capture, one other woman, whom I did not know, observed the same object and joked it must be a UFO.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #176717). 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.
