Light over Ocean city, MD
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I was on my boat looking at the stars and I saw this light that was moving very fast and I thought it was plane then relized it disappeared and didn’t have a red and green light on each side or flashing. It almost looked like it was camouflaging as a star.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #178031). Witness text is preserved verbatim, including its spelling; nothing is edited beyond formatting.

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.
