The report, as filed
I was driving down the road (NE west Kingston rd) passing the high school when i looked up in the sky and saw something fly behind the clouds (about 8:18) and i thought it was just shooting star but it happened a sec later and then again but only to change direction, i didnt get time to see what happened but i continued down to my friends house to pick up something i looked up at the sky only to see it happen again and again but it was doing a L like Pattern and my friends house and he saw it two, but i was creeped out and left. (about 8:38) when i left did not see how long this lasted but my friend went back inside and went to sleep, he did not make much of it but i was creeped out. Then i went back to my house but could see past the tree line.I tryed to take a video but my phone could not make out what was going on, it was to dark. ((DESCRIPTION) It looked like a flashlight in a foggy field but moving vary fast in the sky almost like a very bright shooting star but shooting stars don't change directions and don't happen in the same spot over and over again. Thank you for taking time and reading my Description.

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.

At about 10:20 PM on May 21, 2021, I stepped out on the porch on the west side of my home. A light in the sky, just above the tree line and due west, caught my eye. A few minutes previously a small plane had passed by, also due west, moving from the NW in a southerly direction, with the usual running lights and strobe. This, however, was a bigger “blob” of light, very orange, basically spherical but not perfectly so, randomly changing in intensity. It drifted from NW to SW, continuing to “pulse” arhythmically. There was no sound at any time. After maybe 10-15 seconds three more lights, very similar, all orange, drifted in from behind the treeline. They all traveled around lazily, with random changes in velocity and slight changes in direction. All orange and very bright, sometimes dimming slightly or appearing to go translucent. They didn’t settle into any particular configuration, and never too close to each other. All remained just a few finger widths abov! e the treeline, then all four began to drift north. At this point I dashed into the house to get my husband out of bed. He hustled out with me but the lights had gone. After a few seconds a single one drifted up from the treeline WSW of us, then headed NW, again very slowly and with a sort of jerky, random velocity change movement. It faded out as it passed to the north. The whole sighting lasted maybe four minutes. I have phone video but it’s not very helpful. I’m attaching an image I made in Photoshop which more accurately depicts what I saw. These were not satellites. There were wispy clouds and these objects moved in front of the clouds.

I was driving East on NE Country Woods Lane at about 15 miles per hour. I observed an aircraft that may have been a blimp about 200' above the ground that looked similar to an airbus 320 but was much shorter in length and much wider in diameter, more like a pregnant guppy shape. It seemed to be traveling directly South at about a speed of 35 miles per hour. Within a few seconds of observing it--it went out of my sight because of large trees blocking my view. I continued East for about 5 seconds and my sight was no longer obscured and the floating object was not there at all. From this point of view I could see over 1500 feet and my vision was unimpaired all the way from the East thru directly South to the West. The sky was totally blue skies at that time except for one small white cloud visible to me directly where I had extrapolated the object would be, factoring in its apparent speed and direction. If anyone in the immediate area was looking up they should have easily seen the object.
