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.

In my 41 years of life I have never seen anything even close to this. My 14 year old son and I had just walked out of my parents house and around 10:20pm on 09/04/2022 when my son starts hollering dad look up in the sky as ne was freaking out. I then ran inside to get my 18 year old son to come see this also. It was a HUGE V shaped object that seemed to be just floating through the sky.it changed direction once but the object its self never turned, twisted or nothing. The entire thing had a very dull orange glow to it Anything Ive ever came across in life that I've been unsure about always had a logical answer to what possibly could have happened or what it could have possibly been. But this object has completely confused my thought process and changed my beliefs. There is nothing that could possibly even come close to being able to say maybe it could have been that.

On Friday July 11, 2020, I was awaken by a thunderstorm. I like watching thunderstorms, so I got up, and went out to back deck. It was raining hard, and lightning, but I wasn't getting too wet. As I was looking toward my detached garage above and behind my garage, which was about 50 feet from me a oblong bright blue/white object appeared . It looked like it came out of a portal . It hovered there for about 5-8 minutes. Then it started to descend slowly. I'm the kind of person that would grab my phone, and run out to take photos. That didn't happen, or my memory was wiped clean. I woke Saturday morning, and decided to cut my grass. I'm 68 years old, and work 10 hours a day 5 days a week. Monday through Friday. It's hard for me to keep up with outside work. The grass needed cut bad, so I started cutting. When I got to the back yard I saw the high grass had a depression about 12 feet by 12 feet. I got my phone out, and took pictures. When I first saw the depression, I remembered the sighting the night before. I looked for steps or prints leading to, and/or from the depression, but saw none. Monday I called WRAL news Raleigh,NC, and asked if they had had other reports. They said no, and asked me to text the pictures along with my info, so I did.

I witnessned many UFOs 1 large, and about 20 small. They would light up then go out. Repeatesly. I took video of the event. The witness is known to us, and is former military. He has submitted at least one other credible report of a sighting he had while serving aboard a USCG vessel. He has offered to forward video of this sighting PD

At 05:03 on 05/03/14 I woke, and went outside to walk my dogs. I always watch the skies, and this morning the skies were clear. I looked straight up, and a bright white UFO appeared. It was the size of a large star, and brighter than any of the other stars around it. It appeared then moved across the sky slowly from north to south, and then disappeared. There were no aircraft in the area, and it made no sound. Flare from Iridium satellite? PD
