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.

I had got up to go to the bathroom in my bedroom and laid back down. Like I usually do, I scrolled through Twitter. My bed sits in front of my large bedroom window. The curtains typically stay up open for natural light. We live near train tracks so I’m used to strange loud noises. All of a sudden I heard and felt this strange vibrational whooshing. I cannot explain it. It sounded close yet far at the same time and had a distorted talking within it. I couldn’t make out what it said. It lasted between 35-34 seconds and became so loud that it woke up my daughter who was sleeping next to me. The only thing I can say with certainty is that it sounded not of this world. In all my years I’ve never heard anything to resemble this noise. I immediately got goosebumps. It sent shivers down my spine I woke up husband up who is a very sound sleeper. The only thing I noticed when looking at the sky is that one star seemed brighter than normal. Maybe I just haven’t noticed it or there is a reasonable explanation for that component, but the sound is terrifying and unexplainable. I know it sounds crazy, but it really happened. I have to believe it was alien. I have never believed in aliens, but this is insane. My dog made a noise after this experience ended and my daughter never wakes up like this either. This is scary and if I didn’t experience it I wouldn’t even believe it myself.

I will type a more thorough narrative later, but I witnessed two abnormally shaped objects appearing to tumble end over end through the sky at fairly low altitude. They were silent and didn't appear to have any propulsion. But they didn't appear to lose any altitude as they traveled towards the horizon either. I managed to video it although the video isn't great. I've attached it.

Avon Lake, OH
On Saturday April 7, 2018, at about 2:20pm, I was driving east in Avon Lake, Ohio, on Krebbs Road, which is about 3 miles south of Lake Erie. This road also passes into Bay Village, Ohio. It was a sunny day with a clear blue sky, and temperatures in the low thirties. As I was headed eastbound, I looked out my drivers side window to the north as saw a silver metallic cigar shaped object with no wings, no tail and no contrail. The object appeared to be at a distance above Lake Erie. I slowed down, and intermittently looked at the object. At one of the times I looked at it, I observed a horizontal red band in the middle of the object that was a quarter to a third of the object's length, however the next time I looked at it the band was no longer visible. When I reached the end of the road at Bradley Rd, I was stopped by a traffic light. I had to turn my head a little over my shoulder at this point and noticed the object was stationary in the sky. I proceeded to drive a little ways north on Bradley Rd., but turned around in a couple of minutes and headed back west on Krebbs Rd. I pulled into Bay Village City Services parking lot, got out of my car and looked north to the sky, but the object was gone. I proceeded to call my husband at 2:27pm to tell him about this. The object appeared in size to be about 2/3 the size of the moon in length. I previously reported another incident which occurred approximately 10/27/2002 and was reported on 9/3/17 and posted on 9/5/2017.

Avon Lake, OH
I was driving home from a friend's house by the lake when I saw what I thought at the time was a low flying plane with green and red lights flying away from me. About 8 minutes later, as I turned away from the lake heading towards my house, I saw the same lights over a housing development. I then witnessed the lights stopping over a house and saw that they were in a triangular formation. One light was green on light was red and one light was clear. The triangular shape was about the same size of the house and low enough that I could make out the edges of the shape. I put my car in park by the house across the street from the house that the triangle was over intending to take a picture or video when it started moving away. I then proceeded to follow it around until it stopped over enough development closer to the lake. The same pattern of following the shape and stopping under or near it continued for approximately 20 minutes. It hovered over the high school softball field, various neighborhoods, and road intersections. Whenever it would move the green and red lights went out while the clear light remained blinking. I was able to take a short video of the clear blinking light moving. I was on the phone with my brother from half of the event and then I stopped following the triangular shape to pick him up to show him what I was describing to him. We went in the direction that I last saw it heading, but was unable to find it again after 20 minutes of searching.
