Light over Baldwin Borough, PA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
When my family and I arrived at our Baldwin home, just after 9:00 p.m., we spotted a string of at least five orange lights flying equidistant from each other in a linear formation over Pittsburgh. The lights came from out of the north and arced toward the west, where we lost sight of them. No sound was heard coming from the lights, and they were low enough in the sky that we would have heard engines if they were a standard aircraft. What we witnessed bears a similarity to a report filed on this site on 10/11/14 21:15. We also live in the vicinity of the Allegheny County Airport. I'm not looking for ET, just a plausible answer. I don't believe this was the ISS or its re-supply ship.

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.
