Formation over Cumming, GA

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

The report, as filed

On Friday September 5th at around 10 PM I was in my driveway when I witnessed a cluster of red or orange lights in the distant sky that were moving in a south west direction. Some of the lights appeared to be moving in formation, one behind the other, while others at the end of the formation changed to a sideways V shape. Still others appeared to be moving freely all over the sky. As the lights moved across the western sky and out of view more lights could appear over the tree line. I phoned my neighbor for a witness. He joined me and we watched this process continue for approximately 15 more minutes. There were too many lights to count and we both estimated that there were at least 20 to 30 lights. Eventually only 1 or 2 new lights at a time joined the others and they all finally moved out of our viewing range. We discussed the sighting; compared notes and both agreed that this could not have been birds, planes or helicopters. Neither of us have ever seen anything like this.

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.

1 white egg shaped or tic tac shaped 40’ long craft flying fairly low, maybe 20,000 feet, heading northwest across 400 over Cumming Tuesday January 10, 2022 at 3:05pm. Clear sky, no clouds. I was driving home from work going 70mph. I see a white object flying in a straight line across 400 over Cumming. I noticed it was all white, no wings, no exhaust, no lights, no trail so it couldn’t be an airplane, helicopter, blimp, or hot air balloon. This object was moving rapidly. By the time I grabbed my phone to get a picture or video, it was too far away then it was gone.

I was shooting the eclipse on 11/8/22 and saw this object in 2 photos. Was wondering if it was a star in the shadow but it has structure

Two white balls of white light totally independent moving from many miles away but extremely visible clear totally independent moved from two separate areas fast slow then up towards the clouds on a clear partly cloudy day. They were far apart then moved together I would have gotten my phone but I was walking back from pool my phones were in my backpack I could either watch these incredible whatever they are or try to video and miss . They were mesmerizing. Never seen anything like this. Not aircraft. I am a student pilot. Not ballon’s. Satellite etc just something never seen before. Wow.

Two fairly slow moving objects, one following the other in a perfectly straight line moving west to east. No sound whatsoever. Both were primarily red and white in color and looked like slow moving fireballs. Took a video on my smartphone. Zoomed in on the second object using pinch and un-pinch. Playing the video, it flashed brightly one time. Never have seen anything like it in my life. Full moon tonight over North GA. I was outside shooting street Christmas lights in our neighborhood. Looked up into the western sky as I walked home at which time I witnessed the sighting. College educated male, age 74.

a large red light resembling a ferris wheel ... We have seen this huge light on several occasions and when no stars are visible...When trying to take a picture - at close range it looks like three cigars in triangle shape ... We are curious if anyone else sees this big red ferris wheel looking object!
