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.

William Goyea 260 Plain St. Mansfield, MA 02048 p: 774.219.8368 e: wjgoyea@yahoo.com Time: Currently, Daily I sent this in June and all the sudden crafts with different lights are moving in a pattern around the lake I live on. I wanna know what is going on because these cratfs were not around until I said something to you guys. I would like an explanation for why the government crafts feel that they can travel around my property without any kind of notice. They may provoke a negative response from the UFOS that seem to like me. I would think you would want me to be part of the investigation seeing that they follow me wherever I go. I don't know why this is occurring but the government SURVIVELANCE crafts are not helping the situation. Please let me know what the FUCK IS GOING ON!! THIS IS A COPY of what I sent in June! CurrentlyObserving UAP's Approximately the last week of May, 2022 I noticed an object hovering over my parents home located at the above address. When I saw it again the following day I noticed another one about 200 yards a way, closer to the street. They looked identical and once again I did not really take exception to them because of the fact that I live on a lake and the possibility of people flying drones these days is quite high. When I saw the second one I thought maybe it was some friends,or a family, that got the same type of drone and were just playing around with them. So I mentally dismissed them as that and went about life without a second thought. "UFO shit ain't my thing! Ya hear?" I said to myself, Lol! Then I was thinking cops because the people I got away from weren't really breaking the law per-se, but I guess it was enough for me to pick up and leave to a fucking garage, Maybe 5.0 was up in our shit and followed me. This was another explanation. Once again I said to myself "Breaking the law really ain't my thing! Ya hear?" I kinda said that to myself again and now had two excuses in my mind to ignore them. (Being Isolated in a garage for a month you start talking to yourself and maybe some objects like this vacuum that always stares at me, Lololol! As a couple weeks went on these "blinking star" like objects continued to catch my attention and I began to question why anybody would place drones in almost the exact same spots at a height a couple hundred yards off of the tree tops. How boring and what a waste of anyone's time and effort I thought. NOW, they caught my attention and I began to take pictures around June 11, 2022. My camera on my phone is all I have. The phone is a simple Android with not a lot of photographic capabilities, or specialties for that matter. It's what some people would call a PIECE OF SHIT! What I have is what I have and I will do my best for you guys. I have been taking pictures of these objects at least every other day, weather permitting, ever sine 6/11. Presently I'm seeing about 10 of these in the sky. Some are farther off than others. Their numbers seem to be growing and I have become concerned. I am a 51 year old male, and my 78 year old parents seem to be the only ones that are noticing these, specifically me. I doing my due diligence, as far as my capabilities allow me to, and have concluded that these are not normal happenings for a summer time ,I SEE THEM EVERY NIGHT! I am going to be posting videos that I take of these UAP'S. The dates will begin now, 7/19/22. Please keep in mind that I first noticed these towards the end of May though,so it's going on two months and they are still present and I am still in the process of photographing and recording them when they appear in almost the exact spot in the sky, every day like clockwork. Description: They are a slightly blinking light, I guess strobing is a more accurate description as they catch the naked eyes attention. When viewed through the camera lens they seem to zigzag all over the place, yet I'm able to keep it within the camera frame pretty easily. They also seem to vanish for a second or two as well when looking through the lens. They then return in the same vicinity very quickly. From the naked eye they appear as a slightly moving, strobing intense bright white light. They seem to notice when I'm watching and turn to a dull grey as if to hide. They turn that intense white light on intermittently. All of this is definitely emerging from a flying object, in size about 3' by 3'. From my many pictures I seem to have been able to catch them at different angles and I am able to see two separate ports (I guess thats what they would be called) that discharge a very strong, incredibly intense bright white light. Hopefully you will be able to depict these from my pictures. The lights are coming from a body and then there is also maybe an antenna or a tail that are slightly visible in all my pictures, but not to the naked eye. Contact me if anyone would like to investigate this unexplained phenomenon with me. They arrive right when the sun starts to go down and leave just after dawn. Thank You! Bill Goyea 508.594.9036

Currently Observing UAP's Approximately the last week of May, 2022 I noticed an object hovering over my parents home.

As a couple weeks went on these "blinking star" like objects continued to catch my attention and I began to question why anybody would place drones (in almost the exact same spots a hundred yards off of the tree tops) over such an inactive area and in such timely fashion? How boring and what waste of anyone's time and effort I thought. This caught my attention and I began to take pictures June 11, 2022. My camera on my phone is all I have.

It had just snowed unexpectedly. I had taken a video of the snow. When the Sun came out a few minutes later, I took a photo to send to my friend. A few minutes after taking the photo, I realized that there was something inexplicable in the sky.

Mansfield, MA
At outdoor Dave Matthews concert, admiring a satellite passing by, when a fireball with a bright red flaming tail passed through the sky and behind the trees. Many witnesses were pointing at it and screaming excitedly. Shortly thereafter from behind us another similar object, red and yellowish, which seemed to be headed straight towards us but suddenly disappeared. It was behind the crowd's view this time, so less witnesses saw this one. Then right after that another much smaller red object seemed to fall straight down in the same area where the first fireball was seen.
