Circle over Dennison, OH
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I saw three small very fast moving white balls of lights changing around in their flying formation in ways that’s not possible for planes. There were no blinking lights. They came immediately after fireworks almost as if checking it out. They moved around different parts of the sky coming in and out by seeming to disappear and then emerging somewhere else. These orbs are something we occasionally see here behaving very strangely like this.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #176435). 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.
