Sphere over San Antonio, TX
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
At midnight on December 31 2015, we were watching the fireworks on New Year's eve downtown, I was actually video recording the event on my iPhone 6. When the fireworks began everyone was cheering, when I heard multiple people around me saying what the hell is that? I looked to my right, and above us a UFO came across the night sky, hovering red and green lights. It was round with green lights one one side but it had red lights on the other side of it, it flashed in both colors, at first my sister claimed it was the news filming the event, but the people including myself said that not a helicopter, it maneuvered across than accented up and than down, it turned and began trailing back. This isn't the first time I recorded this red and green flashing light UFO. Last year, on Fourth of July, I recorded a craft with this same descriptions at a fireworks display going off. It hovered over our home. I wasn't sure if I could display the link to my actual video recorded footage from you tube. I have also sent a description and uploaded my video to MUFON.

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.

About 9:50 my daughter and I stepped outside. We were hanging out at our balcony when we spot in the sky a light coming towards us, as we continue to watch we see that is a square light with an orb in the center that is much brighter. And what seemed like clouds moving with it, the sky was completely free of all cloud cover. We continue to observe this light a few seconds longer as it shifts and disappears. The glow from it was so bright it was its own light (not what looked like exterior lights of a craft) although the craft had disappeared you could still see the square of light fade after. We have 2 videos and still frame images zoomed. Falcon 9 Starlink-101 (6-11) SpaceX SLC-40, Cape Canaveral SFS [NUFORC annotation: Rocket - Certain]

Sitting outside on a clear night, no clouds to be seen. Facing NW, watching a football game on TV when something bright caught my eye. I looked up and there was a bright light (no color) that looked like it was flying in a haze, like a cloud and it was coming in our direction. It kinda looked like a helicopter light, but it did a slight turn to the west and there were no beacon lights or sound. Shortly after it turned there was a poof before it, like a cloud and then it disappeared. While it was flying in our direction, we checked the flight tracker and there were no aircrafts transmitting at that time. I was with four other people who witnessed it with me. Video attached is not mine, but from another witness. Falcon 9 Starlink-101 (6-11) SpaceX SLC-40, Cape Canaveral SFS Florida, United States [NUFORC annotation: Rocket - Probable]

A bright light appeared in the clear low moisture Northwest sky. It appeared to be a drone or helicopter in the low level distance with a searchlight however the altitude was difficult to judge. It was traveling parallel to the horizon, NW to SE at what appeared to be a slow rate of speed. The object did not have leave a re-entry trail. The object ultimately exhibited a plume of visible moisture or smoke from the leading portion, and disappeared. No ADSB hits at the time. There was a starlink cluster in the area but this was a single object. It was very high altitude based on video. Multiple reports from at least 5+ mile radius and possibly 200+ mile on social media.
