Flash over Granton, WI
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I went outside to call my cat in at 7:30 and looked up at the clear, starry sky and, saw what looked like many airplanes all at once. Each flashed like a strobe light,some moved at a steady pace, and others hovered moving slowly and stopping. All were in close proximity in the sky, could be viewed from one side of the yard, not the other. I checked on and off over the course of an hour or so,and they remained visible. I got my daughter ready for bed, went to peak out the door again,and by 8:50pm they were gone. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. 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.

I stepped outside around 7:00 pm (still broad daylight). My wife was 2 steps behind me. I looked up in the sky and a light was flying through the sky at tremendous speeds like that of a shooting star. The light started out green, then turned purple and then orange. I told by wife to look and by the time she reached the door, it had instantly disappeared. This all happened in less than 3 seconds.
