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.

I could not see anything other than a large cluster of bright white lights. They were moving in a common direction and also seemed to be churning around among themselves. I was unable to capture them before they disappeared behind and past the tree line. They were low, maybe 100 feet up and made no sound.

I was driving northbound on a rural road and I noticed lights in the sky up ahead. I didn’t think anything of it, I just kept driving. But as I got closer to the lights they seemed strange. The way the lights were placed did not remind me of anything I have ever seen before. They also did not blink, they were whitish lights, very bright. No other colors. There were two larger lights (maybe just one, like I said they were very bright, almost blinding so it could have been just one big light) in the center, then two smaller lights, one on each side. As I drove under the object, which was just above the tree line, I noticed the craft was shaped like a stealth. It was dark grey. It never moved. it was just hovering in one spot. I estimated the duration because I saw it as I was driving, not sure how long it was there before I saw it. As I was approaching the object, my Pandora crashed and I could not connect to a signal on my phone for miles. I don’t usually have problems with my connection in this area, so I thought that was strange. I opened my window to hear if there might be a sound. It was hard to tell, there were other cars passing by. But I heard a fuzz noise, reminded me of when a VCR ends, static.

My wife and I were walking back to our car after dinner last night in a parking lot at 7PM. She was looking at the stars, as it was a very clear night and told me to look up. (She actually said ”What the F is that?”) I looked up and saw about 20 or 30 dim white lights spread out in a wide U shape. The space behind and in-between the lights looked to be translucent. It was moving very fast and steady across the sky. There was no sound at all. We only saw it for less than ten seconds when it disappeared as though it vanished in a cloud. (there were no clouds.) I could have been drones moving together, but they would have to be dragging a see through plastic film or something. Size is difficult because it was hard to tell how high up it was. It was big about 5 or 6 moons across. We went home and both drew pictures of what we saw and then compared them. I called my friend who asked me a bunch of questions: How fast was it moving? Very Fast and Steady, no not like someone with a laser pointer. More like a fast low flying plane. How long did you see it? 5 or 10 seconds then it was gone. Did the lights have color? No, they were dim or dull white lights, not very bright. Did they move tightly as a group? Did they separate in any way? They moved tightly as a group. He looked for other sightings that were similar to mine online and found this site and told me to check it out. There are several. I checked this morning after reading other reports and found it was also flying in a SW direction.

A lime green "falling star" streaked across the sky heading north along Rt. 100. Lost sight as it flew behind the tree line. 2 people saw the event at the same time and was too low to be a commercial aircraft. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD
