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 was trying to see moon from my telescope, and all of a sudden, blue light appeared from left side of the moon and went to right side. Changed light once to red and back to blue before I started recording. It was not a full moon, but in the video I took it appears full round some how. Blue circle was moving very fast and different patterns. Blue light was very bright. At once it was going towards incoming airplane and than all of a sudden it changed direction. I'll send video clip that I took. Just trying to figure out what was the object I saw that night?

The movements were unusual so we began to drive closer to the object. As we approached the object it changed color from a royal blue to a bright white and stopped in mid air. It then changed course and began moving in the direction of the car and changed color 2 more times before changing course again and moved back towards the development.

This looked like a "double shooting start," but much brighter and lower in the sky. Very white. Large mass that broke into 2 separate tails, fell quickly to the earth. Possible meteor?? PD

Dear sir/Madam, This is in regards to the unusual scene I noticed in the sky on 09/20/14 at 7:55 pm near Catonsville. I saw some golden yellow lights moving around in sky they were as if 20 to 25 planes moving in the same direction. After sometimes the lights disappeared one by one. Initially my husband refused to see, as he was driving. When we stopped, he and my daughter were totally shocked. I don't know if it was some kind of UFO or something else. But I'm quite sure it is not normal, if it was meteor shower then it would seem to be falling not moving here and there and going off. We are very curious to know what it is? Thank you.

My husband and I were coming home from work at approximately 19:45 on the evening of Thursday, August 28, 2014. We turned onto the road that our apartment complex is on and out of the corner of my husband’s eye, he spied a bright light. He told me to turn the car around to see the object more clearly. As I turned the car around, I saw the object. The object was moving side to side and up and down at a fairly rapid rate. Then the object seemed to stop and hover. It then moved very rapidly to the right and hovered again. It then moved to the left, then up and down and went below the tree line. We were sitting in a parking lot as we were watching the object. It had a bright white glow about it. We did not hear any noise or sound from it. We believe it was about a mile away. Granted, if there was a sound, it may have been drowned by the traffic noise. Once the object was below the tree line, I drove in the direction of the object; however, we were not able to locate it again.
