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.

We were driving home late at night and on the way home is a big open highway we were both looking up at the sky when we noticed something moving extremely fast down towards the ground in front of us. It moved from the top of the sky all the way down to maybe 500 feet above ground, proceeded to make a u turn towards the sky and disappear in the blink of an eye. It maybe was the size of a truck or bigger. Very hard to tell because of how fast it was, it was a white light as well. Like an orb almost but it had more shape than a circle. No way of explaining it. I don’t understand how someone in the world could have such technology and the rest of the world not know about it

We wonder whether the witnesses might have been observing a celestial body, possibly Arcturus. PD

We saw at least 8 different solid white lights moving across the night sky. 2 of them were as low as a small plane, but with no noise at all. The others were way up in the sky but again solid white lights without noise (not like a jet) and jets can't fly at those altitudes. We have been seeing these lights with increasing frequency for the last month. The difference with last night is they are now flying lower in the night sky than before last night. What are they? And do we have to worry?

On the night of 12/7, as I was leaving work, I saw a light that I initially thought was a plane moving north from a southwesterly direction. My daughter was also standing on the porch with me, and we had watched several planes in the few minutes we were outside. I called her attention to the light being a single clear light with none of the normal aircraft lights. The light then turned from its seeming northward trajectory and began moving quickly away to the east. It only remained visible for another 3-4 seconds however before being gone. There were other planes clearly visible in the same area including one that came from the exact easterly direction immediately after the light had gone, however that plane suddenly turned back and went back to the east again, a highly unusual thing for aircraft that we normally witness in the skies above NE Tn. I would really like to just know if you have any information from that night of the military chasing an object in this area please, as I have been perplexed since that night. Any information would be so greatly appreciated. Thanks much
