Diamond over Crystal lake, IL
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Walking around the neighborhood, we stopped for a rest quick and continued our conversation. Naturally I was looking into the sky, I noticed something. Which could almost be explained as flying fairly transparent Dimond shaped crafts. Swinging amongst each other as if part of a symphony. I say this because there is no other way to portray it. It most definitely was not a flock of birds. The light admitted was faint, very dull, and blending in with the horizon. It lasted all of 20 seconds, and even if i had recorded it. The cell phone video would not have picked up the low light admittance. Ive been looking ever since to try and catch the same thing. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

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.
