Through Aletheca, the house instrument, anyone can commission the request — filed, chased, and published in the open, refusals included.

Van Alstyne, TX

I was traveling down highway 75 in Van Alstyne, TX, during the beginning of a small thunderstorm. I noticed a white LED fairly bright light saucer style shape moving in vertical and horizontal, hovering type movements through a dark wall cloud. It proceeded to move through and in and out of the clouds before disappearing. It was a solid non-blinking light. It appeared to be larger than a plane. It was not a weather balloon or a phone tower. It was not a drone, too large to be, and as it moved it stayed in a very small area where it would hover and move. Ok have never witnessed anything like that.
