The report, as filed

I could see the outline of the ship bend light around its long cigar shap like a big white bus but camo buy reflecting the night sky

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.

Bartlett, TN

5 round objects that had an orange glow that seemed to change to a lighter almost yellow glow briefly and were very bright. These objects were flying in a northwest to southeast direction. One would appear travel the sky overhead and the next would travel the exact same path. They made no noise. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD
