Egg over West Friendship, MD
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I went out on my back patio to take pictures of the blue moon on 7/31/15 about 11:00 pm. I took 4 pictures, and a few seconds of video. I could not see it with the naked eye. On both the pictures and the video, there is a blue egg shaped object. It was in the sky between the moon and the tree line behind my neighbor’s house, then it landed behind the trees and then it took off again. You can see a jet stream dissipating in the pictures. In the video, again not noticeable to the naked eye, there is a blue orb quickly flying around. Lens flares, caused by pointing a camera at a bright source of light. 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.
