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.

This is a recurring sight. Sometimes there are many objects, sometimes just the one. This time was just one. When it’s just one, it’s always in the same area. It’s a VERY bright light that does not move. I see it when I’m at work; I work the overnight shift from 6pm-6 or 9am depending on the day. I’ve only noticed it a few times in the morning when it’s light out, but today was one of those times. Most of the time, it’s there for hours (there was a 3-4 month period where it was there 4 out of the 5 nights I worked from approximately 6:30pm to at least 3-4am). It stopped showing up in November 2021 but started showing back up last month, January 2022. I am a 48 year old female and have lived in the Seattle area my entire life, and my working background is mostly administrative in nature. I’ve seen a couple odd things in the sky before, but this has been a quite regular thing for the last year. So regular that I grew to expect seeing it on a nightly basis and was disappointed when it disappeared for those 2 months. I don’t know if you want this info, but I don’t get a bad or threatening feeling at all, even when there have been MANY of them (November 1, 2021 there were at least 20 that I could see).

My wife and I were enjoying the view from the hot tub on our back deck. It was a clear evening and blue skies with no clouds or wind. Looking SE, I noticed a large shimmering white oval shape silently hovering in a vertical position approximately 400 yards from us at an altitude of around 300 feet. Its size was about 50 feet tall and 30 feet wide. I asked my wife to look and see if she saw what I was looking at she said yes. At first we thought it might be a balloon, but it was too big and the wrong shape. As we observed this stationary object, it began to slowly rotate. The rotating object appeared to have panels that changed to a darker shade. I then jumped out of the tub and grabbed a pair of binoculars that were close by and focused on the unit. Just then the object quickly dropped about 50 feet, and then shot back up to its original height. This made me put the binoculars down. Just as I did this, I saw 3 or 4 small white lights flash approximately 50 y! ards to the left of the object and it just vanished. No wind or any sounds were heard during this event. 3 minutes after the UFO left, a low flying military jet flew right over us which seemed odd and out of place with the usual aircraft we see.

I saw a small white moving light that was the size of a star for about 10 seconds, at the end it was beginning to shrink but still shining brightly, before going past a building I was near. When I got past the building, it was gone. My phone wouldnt have been able to get a good picture. ISS @ 22:25 hrs..

I did not take the photo. I only noticed the existence of this object in the photo taken from St. Vincent de Paul Society store in Kenmore, WA, which was shared on Google. It still can be found there if the name of the store is searched by google search engine. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD
