Sphere over Lyndon, NY
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Orange orbs that almost seemed hovering. Would travel up and down in a very fluid motion, then reform back to each other. Extremely rural area in western NY. This is located at a property that is in a cell phone dead zone, so I don't typically bother carrying my phone. Event occurred 1/2 mile from the nearest road. First heard what sounded like a bunch of spooked farm animals rustling through leaves. Walked over a hill and saw the three orange orbs hovering, they slowly floated off formed one, and then quickly crested another hill and disappeared. Orange isn't the best term to describe the color. I'd say they almost looked peach in color. Based on the height of the tree the closest orb was near, I'd say it was 6-8 feet in diameter
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #178594). 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.
