Sphere over Marshville, NC
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Object moved slowly to the north east direction. Object made no sound had no trail and promptly disappeared before my eyes. Extremely bright, the size was slightly smaller than a basket ball appeared to be perhaps a mile overhead. I am prior army and have never seen anything like it. Was not a typical meteor or fireball as some might try to say it was.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #179152). 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.
