Triangle over Brooklyn Center, MN
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
My coworker and I were driving home from work, and we saw a bright light in the distance along the horizon, initially thinking nothing of it. As it got closer we noticed it got bigger and was treading through the clouds splitting them apart much like a boat would with water. The aircraft then stalled in the sky looking as if it was about to land and stabilized long enough for me to notice it had a spade like shape. It had three white lights, one in the front serving as a headlight, and two on the back corners. Also, there were two blinking red lights underneath it. It hovered in the air for about 20 seconds, its lights turned off, turned back on, and it took off and disappeared, and it didn't make a sound.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #114722). Witness text is preserved verbatim, including its spelling; nothing is edited beyond formatting.
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.

Went out in the morning and looked up in into north east sky and saw a string of multiple lights. Heading northeast from south west. Evenly spaced apart and episodes of other lights joining the string of lights from NW and SW and West direction. Moving fast and alternate speeds. They would merge into the line formation. May have been hundreds of them.

Many saw this and is looked like a meteor. It has a tail as well. Looked like a missile maybe. I did video it as well, but my phone is damaged and its a little fuzzy. Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD
