Diamond over Orangeburg, NY
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I was in bed listening to Coast to Coast AM, which I normally do when I can’t sleep. Glanced outside my bedroom window and saw a object flying lower than normal aircraft. It had a flashing bright yellow light on each of its 4 corners end a small red light near one of the yellow lights. It was travelling south. It could have been a drone, but did not appear to be a Cessna style plane, just a bit smaller, the lights were very bright. Can’t recall if it made a noise.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #121472). Witness text is preserved verbatim, including its spelling; nothing is edited beyond formatting.
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.

Two spheres moving up, down, at one point they changed shape/expanded, seemed to land somewhere close to the house outside of camera view (after we started to report this sighting strange enough). It’s a busy road so I thought maybe car reflection but didn’t matter if there was a car or not passing by. They were in unison and never saw anything like that. I thought maybe a con web or something but no. They showed up on the playback film around 730pm and now I don’t see them at 11:20pm. I’m
