A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.

The report, as filed

It was dark, and I was waiting for my parents to pick me up from my cousin's house. It was later than usual, so I could see the stars. My parents were either doing groceries or my father had to work extra hours, and they usually came together to pick me up. It wasn't a normal scenario since they usually came early. My cousin and I were tired from playing all day, so we decided to rest on the porch until my parents arrived. As we lay down, looking at the stars, I saw what seemed to be a satellite. (I knew how a satellite looked and moved because I had asked my father before what that bright shining object in the night sky, moving slowly, was. He told me it was a satellite, so I knew how to differentiate.) It appeared like a satellite, moving slowly with a bright light resembling a star. I pointed it out to my cousin, and we both watched it. After about 10 seconds, another one approached very quickly and aligned itself beside what I believed was a satellite. Once the second object arrived, they both started moving very slowly, which was unusual. They maintained the same speed for around 5 seconds. Since it was a long time ago and my memory isn't fresh enough to remember perfectly, they may have both come to a stop and stayed for 2 or 3 seconds. However, what I can confirm is that they both accelerated to full speed and disappeared in less than a second. I had never seen anything like it. It wasn't a jet because it was too fast to be any technology we have at the moment. After they took off and disappeared, I asked my cousin, "Did you see that?" and he confirmed. To this day, I still don't think it was a normal aircraft. It was too fast and could slow down to a stop or near stop. I was close to 14/15 years old and he was one year younger than me. It was between 2014/2015 This text was corrected by chatgpt since my english is not good, that's why is very formal but is very well written and is everything that I would say it happened.
