Egg over Willis, TX
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
We were traveling west on the road leading into our neighborhood. We were about to cross the bridge over the lake when I looked up and saw ominous clouds forming a thunderstorm and approaching rapidly. I looked up toward the sky and saw an egg-shaped craft, approximately 60 to 70 feet long, traveling at what I estimated 300 mph and 300 feet elevation. A soft silvery-white cloud surrounded the object, which appeared opaque as though you could see through it. It left a cloud trail that whisked away quickly. It was traveling from due north to due south and disappeared rapidly. I saw it very clearly and very precisely.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #176488). 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.
