Triangle over Allegan, MI
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Saw a bright light in the sky. As I took a closer look I noticed it was hovering far in the distance and it was flashing red, green, and white lights. I watched for ten minutes and then went inside to get my parents, we all then went outside and witnessed this object hover high in the air for a long duration of time. We then witnessed two (what we were assuming were jets) fly toward the hovering object at a very fast rate and got very close to it and flew away. We then watched it slowly descend over time until it disappeared into the distance. This all happened over a duration of 1 hour.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #122118). 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.

I was looking up at the stars, and suddenly this triangular light formation appeared. It was either very large and up high or was small and low. Made no sound, but moved across the sky very quickly.

On 7/18/15 at around 10:00 P.M., I was at my residence, facing west, when I saw a crescent moon in the sky and a star to the right of it. I thought at that time it would make a nice photo so I went in my house and got my cell phone to take a picture. As I was taking the photo I noticed a bright oval shaped object crossing the horizon at a very high rate of speed. For the very short time I observed the object it showed no sign that it was heading toward the surface it stayed on a horizontal path. When I checked my cell phone I discovered that it had caught the image.
