Light over Wilson Lake, KS
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
A buddy of mine and I were fishing the docks at Wilson Lake. We first saw two amber lights to the SE in the sky. The first came on the second. The lights faded same as they appeared. Ten minutes later, to the west of first sighting, the two lights appeared again, same as before. The lights were spaced apart same. Another ten minutes later, the third sighting was 3 lights this time. Appeared one at a time then left same way. Then the 4th sighting started with one light, and built up to 5-6 lights. But now, as one faded, another came from where last appeared. We could see all the lights at once. Idk if this was something spinning or lights just going down a line. Theses lights were amber in color, and just a bit bigger then a street light. If anyone else has info, please respond.

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.
