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.

I was picking up kids toys and the wife had just got home from work met her out in the driveway. I looked up in the sky that I’ve looked up into 1000 times or more and noticed a bright light. The object covered for almost 3 1/2 hours hey sweet side to side up and down, but never left more than 100 foot in each direction, can’t believe what I was saying so I took pictures and a video crazy factors that happen four days later same spot same thing Went to gas station Thursday and I was coming back and seen the same UFO in the same spot. Which is weird because I’ve looked up in the sky thousands of times and they came back roughly 4 days later in the same spot for about the same duration, and did the same exact thing

I was driving Southbound on 1-71 just passed Mansfield OH when I noticed 2 objects that I thought were rockets or jets starting to form contrails close to each other. I then realized they were not contrails and they were not moving. Then I spotted a third one. They were in a sideways triangle pattern pretty far apart but perfectly distanced from each other. I captured this on video. Then one by one they disappeared. I took several still photos immediately after to see if I caught something and I did. They had moved further south and switched to another triangle pattern which would be 90° different than the first pattern. They had traveled pretty far in just a matter of seconds but I did not see them move just disappear and reappear in the pics. You will have to zoom in to see them. The more you zoom they look like bodies almost. They were also much closer to each other. Then according to the photos they either morphed together or disappeared then they changed into almost transparent orbs. It was odd because the sun was the biggest I had ever seen it and had just set. Then 10 min later I look in my rearview mirror and the moon was the biggest I had ever seen it and they were both just over each horizon. It was almost like whatever these things were gathered in between the sun and moon to witness the beauty of it. I believe that it was the blood moon too These were the first UFO"s I've ever encountered. I'm not a nutcase. There had to be alot of other ppl see these they were right over the expressway. I know there were dead bugs on my windshield but when you look at the video and photos you can clearly see that these were not bugs or bird poop. I also saw very strange contrails about 30 miles before I saw these UAPs The contrails were very short and some were curved like a C all in one spot no where else. Almost like fighter jets had been in a dog fight or chasing something in circles. The rest of the sky was completely clear. After I saw these contrails there was no air traffic at all for about 2 hours on my drive during which I saw these lights. At first I thought the objects I saw were what caused those weird contrails that's why I looked at them. Then I realized they were stationary and not causing any contrails. I am a chauffeur and I drive long distances at all times of day and night. I have never seen anything like this. I can show screenshots of all the time and date details on these pics if needed. It all happened between 5:23 PM and 5:26 PM The pics I took at 5:28PM no longer showed anything. I also have like 3 other photos and 1 video which show these. The other video I have I took immediately after the one I included in my report and by the time I recorded it 2 of the objects had disappeared and the third disappears in the video. If you pause the video I sent at the 13 second mark you can see all 3 lights.

I was up on a rooftop doing my morning exercises and looked up and saw this object way above the planes that were flying over at 40000' and that was moving fairly quickly from the West East direction and then then as it approached the sun it disappeared

I just came outside around 9:40 pm. (“Disclaimer: this is all from my point of view “) I sat in my car, rolled down my window (driver side), when I seen an object hovering in the sky. I got out and walked towards front porch. It looked to be (from my angle) an oval shape and/or cigar shape. It had pulsating lights, it seemed to be changing (multiple) colors. It was glowing pretty bright. If I took a guess on the size; I’d say about 30’ or so, maybe larger if I could figure out the distance from my location (point-of-view). It moved from one area of the sky to another(by the way the sky was pretty clear: visually). Each time it moved it hovered for a minute or two. Repeated about 3 times, before it was gone. Eventually, losing sight. You may do with this information as you please, but I assure you that what I seen was something that was abnormal flying around here in our sky’s. We have a I believe it’s a National Guard Air Base on the North-Eastern side of town (which my eldest brother was a member of until his death). We also have a hospital life flight as well, located on the west side of town (in the city limits). I assure you that it wasn’t any kind of air plane/ helicopter/Venus/etc, etc. I hope you find something of value in this report. If you have any follow up questions, don’t hesitate to contact me. Thank you for your time!

While getting ready to go to bed, I looked out the bedroom window to the north and asked my wife if she saw the same lights in the sky as I could. She did, and asked what it was. The lights were rapidly glittering back and forth. Traveling above the clouds, it was wider than a normal aircraft. Flying south to north east of Mansfield. I called for our sons to come see it as well. Our youngest son tried to get it on video, but he couldn't focus on it with his photo. The craft did not make any sound. It was not a satellite, it was not the space station, or comet, or meteor. I have star gazed for years and know what normal aircraft, and celestial objects are at night. The pattern of the lights did not match any that I have seen in 40+ years of watching the sky. They were bright white and did not follow the on/off pattern but, it was random, rapid, back and forth.
