The report, as filed
My wife and I were sitting in our hot tub getting ready to watch the Geminid meteor showers. We didn't know they started after 9:30pm. While I was scanning the night time sky I noticed an object crossing the sky. I immediately told my wife to look at what I was looking at. To her amazement she saw what I saw! The object was shaped like a boomerang. The object emitted no sound that we could hear. The object appeared to be see through or cloaked. It wasn't too high in the sky either. It was moving southeast. All we can say is we saw something that we both have never seen 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.

3 objects flying through sky at a slow rate of speed. All were leaving significant smoke trails behind them. Everyone on 95 southbound had no choice but to see them unless you were completely oblivious. 12/23/19 at approx 4:35pm I witnessed for at least 15 minutes until I was in the White Marsh area and they disappeared out of sight. I first assumed comets but seemed to be moving much to slow and a significant exhaust or smoke flume trailed in the sky behind the objects. I took approx. 15 photos as I drove home from work.

Aberdeen, MD
On Monday June 20th, 2016, at approximately 2100 hours (9pm) EDT, myself and 2 friends were looking for the moon due to there supposed to be a "strawberry" moon on this night. While looking into the sky, a friend Lisa noticed a orange ball in the sky. The rest of use went to look. It looked like a huge fireball traveling from right to left (assuming west to east). As it traveled further east, it decreased in size (assuming due to distance)and than the light would go out. You could still see a dark object in the sky, but not able to tell what it was. This happened 5 more times each time, traveling the same path. Our line of sight allowed us to see this object for approximately 2 minutes each time. I did manage to record a video, but the video does not do it justice. There was no sound with it either. We did call police to see if anyone else had reported the sighting, and they had not received any calls. We do live near a military base that does testing. But the direction of travel was opposite of the way they normally fire test items, and also the no sound with it. I have no idea what I seen. I am a adult of good reputation, do not do drugs, drink, nor am I crazy. I could see planes in the sky, I know what they look like, I know what a satellite looks like, I have seen shooting starts, this was nothing like any of them.

The Aldino Airpark is close but planes never fly to or from there that late and dark in the night. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

At approx. 2310hrs in the area of Carsins Run Road in Aberdeen, MD, I was outside on my porch, the weather was partly cloudy, 0% precip, and no air traffic that I could see or hear. What I experienced was a sky based explosion sound, similar to thunder, but sharper, not distorted by the air and resonated to where I felt it through the concrete and in my chest. After the 2 second incident, I noticed dogs barking in the distance. I've been through enough thunderstorms living in this area to where thunder does not and has not had that reaction on the dogs in the local area. Earlier in the evening, my wife and I also experienced another sky based "boom," to which we also felt it in our chests due to the strength. Although not a true sighting, I felt this should be reported.

To whom it may concern: I would like to report a UFO sighting on Friday September 5, 2014. The sighting occurred around 9:00 pm in the western sky above Aberdeen, Maryland. I was looking at the big dipper group of stars, when I noticed what appeared to be a star above the first star in the handle. I had never noticed it before, so I continued to watch it. The star began to grow larger and brighter. I watched it become extremely brighter then anything else in the sky for a minute or so. The light then moved very fast towards the north, omitting a bright tail of light that disappeared in less than a second. The tail of light was perfectly straight with no curve to it, and was hundreds of times larger than the light it seemed to come out of. The conditions that evening were mostly clear with some light clouds scattered in the sky below the area where the sighting occurred. I was the only witness to this sighting that I am aware of.

Staring out my window across the Susquehanna River I see a humongous object with 4 lights. I looked through my binoculars.
