Light over Gun Barrel City, TX
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
line in the sky bigger than a plane about 3 quarters of an inch long moved slower than a plane about 10 mph seemed like there was 4 horizontal orange lights seemed to "flicker" as if on fire. Only lasted 45 seconds because it moved behind tress blocking our view.. me and 3 other people saw it and verified it was like nothing we had seen before and one person even made the comment "Idk maybe it's a ufo" almost ironically. -Gunbarrel City, Texas 11:25 pm

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 always go to this lake, so I know what everything should look like. This was out of the usual so I started recording it. It was a single orange orb, I guess you could say. It was illuminating the water like the sun would at sunset, just not as bright. It was pulsating a tiny bit. And then it just faded away. The video I got was 15 seconds but it was there for longer. My filming is horrendous but you can see it for about half of the video
