Fireball over Panorama City, CA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
It looked like a flame had shot up into the sky with various beautiful vibrant colors then after it went up high from the ground it turned into a steady vibrant colored ball in the sky then the object started coming back down camouflaging like the sky this time looking like a huge shadow in the shape of a large disk that looked like a darker color of the sky but waves of vibrant colors surrounded it not letting it fully camouflage. Object then continued to circle around in the sky and eventually flying out of sight .
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #178214). 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.
