Sphere over South Amherst, OH
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Pretty much just what was stated above. The object was seen while walking the dog and a small bright light was stationary in the sky visible at the top of our treeline and appeared to be a distance away. The object stayed stationary for 3-5 mins and suddenly darted away very fast similarly to an object being yanked by a string. Was very odd and different from any aircraft that has been seen above our property. We get lots of planes and drones and such but never seen anything like this
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #178818). 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.
