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.

Observed object in sky changing colors for over an hour. Object would appear to stay stationary but as we looked closer it would move up and down back and forth.

Benton, AR

It flew northbound and when it was directly above me, I knew it wasn't a kite, drone, or bird. There were no lights on the object and no sound. It disappeared shortly after into the clouds (partly cloudy that night) and I heard the birds in that direction start to chirp wildly. My camera was mid exposure on a 30 second shot and the object flew just outside the left side of the frame. Unfortunately, even with an ultra wide 14mm lens on at the time, I was unable to capture anything. The whole event lasted no longer than 10 seconds. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD
