The report, as filed
Saturday nite midnight.. My daughter called in a panic. She said there was aliens all around her. Said how afraid she was yelling can't u see them.. I went outside.. Couldn't believe what I was seeing.. My wife jumped in her car and drove to where my daughter was..one craft was so close to her she cud see it spinning..were very bright like stars but all had reddish orange pulsing lites in the center.. I had my binoculars on them. They moved from spot to spot but kept positioning themselves like orion. Then they would seperate all the while the pulsing lites continued. Approximately 12:40 am the 22nd the clouds started to roll in and they all disappeared.. I've seen many UFO's in my life.. But none like this.. none for this long...or that many together.. Was amazing

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.

I heard and airplane flying overhead, when I looked up I saw 3-5 lights moving in a SW to NE direction. The lights I saw were not airplane lights, they looked more like satellites, but all moving at the exact same speed, equally spaced, in a perfect straight line one behind the other. There were clouds obscuring part of the sky and for a moment I thought I glimpsed a much longer line of lights, perhaps 10+, but I did observer a minimum of 3 very clearly moving one behind the other, as they reached the horizon they faded from view.

I was getting ready for bed about 10pm, when out my window there was suddenly very bright lites. I ran outside and was shocked at the object hovering over the trees next to my property just above the tree tops. Huge pulsing yellow and white lights. I grabbed my camera to try and get a picture but it wouldn't work.. Grabbed my phone and it wouldn't work.. My wife's phone also wouldn't work. After 10-15 minutes it started to float away to the south and proceeded west towards the river. For about 3 min., it looked like an airplane, when it suddenly went from a horizontal position to vertical. Was watching in my binoculars when this happened. That's when I noticed the rectangular shape. Then it was getting too far out to monitor. I also noticed 3 pulsing objects the same as I we saw days prior with pulsing reddish orange lites. Main object appeared to be approx. 20-30+/- yards wide.

My wife and I were walking our dog when I noticed a red (lit) object moving in the Western sky. I was intrigued because the lighting was non standard for an aircraft (I am an airline pilot, 39 years of flight experience). The object seemed to dip and then rise again before proceeding eastbound at a perceived speed similar to an airliner. Pulsing, bright, red lighting. No strobes or landing lights typical of a departing jet. No noise was heard. Continued on a straight easterly heading before disappearing. Note: this is my first EVER report. I have never seen anything like this!

At approximately 10pm I saw a bright round light moving quickly at a 15-20 degree angle over the north horizon. Originally believed it to be a plane, but it seemed too bright and I didn't notice any blinking lights. Object came to a full stop in the sky and that is when I started to pay closer attention. At this time it was the size of a bright planet or star but distinguishably different by its rapidly changing color from white to red to green to blue. After watching for a few minutes, I noticed it begin to move erratically in several different directions at a start/stop speed no plane can move, and no human can sustain. I called my wife to the window and we both observed it act like this in the same spot in the sky for over 30 minutes. We also noticed several random pinpoint strobe like flashes in the sky surrounding it during this time. My wife commented that it was moving like a humming bird or fly would - zigging/zagging and stopping on a dime. It eventually moved behind the trees and we lost sight of it after 45 minutes or so. Several commercial planes passed by during this time and were obviously different than what we were observing. It would seem logical with it's brightness and position in the sky that it (the object) was visible from those planes.
