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.

Amsterdam, NY

She had called me over and I had saw what didn't look like a star nor doesn't sound/look like any air craft or tot craft I have seen. It was hovering in one area. No noise coming from it. It flashed yellow, red, green, and a possible orange like color of lights. The green was mainly shown on the sides from my point of view. Where I was in my location, the width was about 1cm and the height was about half a centimeter. It started to fly away north of my direction. As it did, a quiet humming sound came directly from it. I don't know what I have saw. But it is truly my first time witnessing and unknown flying object, a UFO. ((ADDENDUM FROM WITNESS)) I am sorry, I mean January 28, 2016. Again, sorry for the mix up Sent from my iPhone ((END ADDENDUM))
