Formation over Boulder/Lafayette, CO
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
We were watching the fireworks of course, then between the show in Westminster & Denver 4 greenish white lights appeared. They circled with each other, dancing, then formed a very articulate V shape pointing to earth, somewhere near Lafayette. They descended toward the horizon, broke formation & regrouped in a perfect equilateral triangle, with one in the middle. I assume it was a pyramid in the air. They descended further toward the ground & then disappeared.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #111052). Witness text is preserved verbatim, including its spelling; nothing is edited beyond formatting.
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.
