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.

Almost 2 years ago my husband and I moved to Texas County Missouri from the St Louis Illinois area. I knew immediately there was something different about my property, and a 13 acres that we lived on. I've always grown up in a haunted house my whole life a famously known haunted house but never had I had seen what I have seen since I've lived out here. I started seeing strange lights in the sky the beginning of Last Summer as well as my mother-in-law in all six of her children in our blended family. But nothing has been like the summer my husband's niece moved here from Florida the very beginning of Summer when I lost my 18 year old daughter she was murdered in Illinois she came to be with me and and help me get through things. She had never seen a UFO or a ghost but the summer she has. We have got to the point where we sit on the porch every single night it's our favorite thing to do we don't go out we're young still well I'm 40 and she's 31 but our favorite thing to do in the whole world right now is sit on my back porch and watch UFOs because they come every single night in all shapes and colors and sizes they form pyramid triangles in the skies a lot of times they look like they're coming out of a Mothership that we can't see because there's so many coming out we watched three of them form in the sky three big bright lights and then come together to the one in the middle as one I kept telling my husband about this he thought we were crazy he goes to bed quite a bit earlier than I do pretty much with the birds this whole summer he has thought his niece and I were actually crazy we kept telling him what we were seeing and I've noticed a pattern and I know exactly what's going to happen when it's going to happen every night just by watching every single night in my backyard this summer like I'm telling all my friends from Illinois and family that come out to see me and support me because of my loss what I sit and experience every night I don't think anybody really knew what they were getting theirselves into or what they ever thought they were going to see but in the last two weeks 22 people from Illinois have been out to my house and camped in my backyard and we have all sat in my backyard and watch them start and they'll go for hours and fly around my Skies. A total of 36 people this Summer that have come out to visit me have seen these lights in the sky and when I tell them what pattern it's going to go in that's exactly how it goes it's almost like they know I'm watching them too I just need somebody with amazing cameras and video that can come sit on my back porch and experience what we are experiencing out here in Texas County Missouri they say Piedmont Missouri is the hotspot for UFOs they have nothing on Licking Missouri last night my husband and I at 8:45 p.m. walked outside on our back porch and there was two of them in my backyard closer than they ever have been and brighter than they ever have been and then the show started shortly after that there's one that keeps coming back over the left field and it goes down into the woods I'm pretty sure they live in the woods we see them flying up all the time from the woods we've also seen a giant ball of light almost looked like the sun coming out of my woods and disappearing over our head until like another vortex I can't explain it it sounds crazy I just need to get the story out where I live there is no ambient light and a lot of strange things going on a lot of strange recordings that we've got of noises in our Woods that are not from this Earth trust me we googled everything we could but I have plenty of footage night visiting camera footage video videos on our phones from this whole summer as well as several witnesses thanks for reading my story and I hope to hear from you guys
