Cube over Union, ME
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I was watching the demolition derby at the Union Fair, when I noticed a light in the sky out of the corner of my eye. I looked up and saw an apparently silent square (though it was more of what Google tells me is a squircle) of bright white light moving slowly across the sky. I glanced back to the derby, and then looked up again. The object was gone, but then reappeared. I looked back at the derby again, and when I checked again, the object was gone. I looked back, observing the sky but it was gone. Throughout the remainder of the demolition derby, I'd look back up, but I never saw it again.

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.
