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.

While outside I heard a very loud airplane like noise. The noise was loud enough to startle me and lasted 5-6 minutes. The object itself was charcoal gray in color, diamond like shape, and not low flying. I saw the object for 30 seconds and it went up instead of forward or backward into the sky. Because of cloud cover and the object moving quickly I had to run through my yard to maintain visual on the object.

Was driving through Corbin northbound on I-75 when we saw a bright green light circular in shape to the left above the tree tops. There was only one. Seemed to be traveling fast and then quickly disappeared.

I was outside working on a water line with my step son and son in law when the area became light up in a green glow, I looked up to my right and they did as well to see a 20ft by 20ft bright green orb descend down out of the sky and hover above a single wide mobile home, it hovered in 1 spot for 2 or 3 minutes with out making a sound as we walked closer to it then when we were with in 30 feet from it it started hovering slowly off to the right then with in a minute of that it took off and it was gone it didn’t make a single sound and was gone in out of sight within seconds, the middle of the orb was a lighter green and a darker green around the edges, I tried to take a picture of it but my phone would work and when it did it just took a picture of everything around looking green but no orb it was the same orb the spotted in Canada but with in 4-6 months after that my step daughter seen the same orb but at another property in Corbin with 4 miles or so from where I seen it
