The report, as filed
As I drove off I-355, I noticed a blue and red steady light in the sky going pretty fast forward then backwards. I turned around to check it out and took a video. In the video the lights turn off and then on and zips around in every direction. While taking a second video, I was watching my screen when I couldn't find it, I looked out of my windshield to find it hovering in one spot, facing me and then flashed its lights. I saw three red dots in the form of a triangle on the bottom and blue around the outside. I was so physically shaken, I had to leave. Never saw anything like this before.

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.

I first saw 2 faint yellow lights chasing each other east through the sky. 10 minutes later I saw 20 similar lights flying in a perfect V formation heading south. The objects were traveling very fast and disappeared in the sky for both sightings.
