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.

Kings Park, NY

I was at The Pavilion in Sunken Meadow State Park (NY) for my daughters wedding on 9/12/21. It was 9:03pm and I was pushing my granddaughter in her stroller on the boardwalk with my friend. We noticed a bright orange circular light flying slowly across the sky. It was far away but I was able to zoom in and capture the shape and lights. It was about the size of the moon from a far distance. The orange lights fluctuated between going very bright (where it almost looked like a bullseye), and as the lights dimmed, they were spotty, not solid, almost as if a firework would dim, then it would go bright again and repeat this pattern for about a minute before it disappeared. It made no sound at all and the color and shape remained orange and circular.
