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.

Zanesville, OH

While walking my dog I observed 2 red lights in the sky north of our home. The lights were continuous and not blinking. The lights appeared to be 50-75 feet apart moving independently and rapidly in a southwest direction for approximately 10 seconds before slowing to a stop. After stopping first 1 light slowly faded from sight followed by the other. Approximately 5 seconds after both lights disappeared a third appeared from the same area as the first two, moving more rapidly than the first two in the same direction as the original lights. Upon reaching the same area that the first two lights disappeared the third also slowed to a stop and proceeded to fade from sight. I continued to observe the area for 10 minutes after the last contact, but no further lights were observed .
