As reported

Formation over Albuquerque (Kirtland AFB), NM

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

The report, as filed

((ADDENDUM FROM WITNESS)) It happened about 7:45pm Friday evening. When walking outside, I looked south towards the southeast. I am guessing the lights were past the airport and had a bright orange/ reddish to them. Not blinking or strobing but a strong glow to them. As all were lit the formation was a "L"-ish figure up high, with a count of thirteen glowing lights individually synced. I called my Friend to hurry come look when they finally saw what I did the upper part was not lit and the lower five that were horizontal were. It lasted for about 15-30 sec. I checked to see if the news or anything was reported the following day and nothing was there I just switched off my phone so I was not able to take a picture but looked up strange lights in the sky on google. There were some similarities to the glowing orange/reddish light in Dallas, Texas. as what the description said. Thank you ((initials deleted)) ((END ADDENDUM))

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.
