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.

Carlin, NV

On the night of February 7, 2020 I was traveling from Carlin, NV to Elko, NV which is about a 25 minute drive and a distance of 23 miles or so. I got through the tunnels that go through a hillside on the road traveled. After I exit the tunnels, I had seen something in my rearview mirror. It was pretty bright and caught my attention. It looked like a falling star possibly but had like what looked to be the after effects of fireworks in the sky. Imagine those two things put together and that's what I had seen. I tried to talk myself out of thinking I seen anything abnormal and chalked it up to im sure it was just a glare from the lights of the tunnels I just exited. It was not until my traveling home that I seen this unidentified object in the sky. I hit about the halfway point traveling home from Elko, back to Carlin. The halfway point as I call it is known as the Hunter exit. It is a remote area, not much there. I get past this exit a ways and still before e! ntering the tunnels and I see this light outside my passenger side window. It looked too bright to be a star, moved too fast to be a plane, and it kind of just hovered really closely over the hillside. I was thinking what it could possibly be but nothing seemed to explain it logically. I studied this object while driving along and finally just decided to focus on the road and quit distracting myself for a while then when I looked over once again a ways down the road, itbwas gone. So, it wasn't until I get off the exit to Carlin, I see this light yet again and start to question my sanity. I stopped at the end of the first exit to Carlin and studied this object for a minute. I then continue home and decided I'm going to record this travel because the light was not disappearing and I start to think Whoa, I am really looking at a possible UFO right now. It cant be. I recorded this short travel from the exit to my home because I'm wanting to tell my parents at this point and the! y will think I'm crazy. I have the series of videos. If anythi! ng im ho ping they will tell me what it is or might be. I reach my home and got out of my vehicle and stare at this unidentified light for a while longer before I decided it was weird the thing had not disappeared yet and that they possibly seen me too and ran in my home. I decided to ignore it and hope they didn't come abduct me someday if I pretended nothing ever happened. (HAHAHA) This is really what was crossing my mind though. It is not until I experience something even more mind blowing the following night that I start to seriously question my sanity. I will describe the next nights event in a seperate report of it's own.
