The report, as filed
I was driving 10 miles west of Cedar City, UT at 7:05 in the evening. Headed west and saw peculiar light in the SW sky. Watched it, because it didn't look like a plane or planet. Developed a tail and thought it was a meteor. But it didn't burn out, it kept going and getting closer. As it became closer (heading towards east s/e) the tail was lights that revolved around the object or maybe the object seemed to "pulse". The lights were multicolored and the object would disappear for periods. 5-10 seconds at a time. Appeared to be beneath clouds, as I originally thought it might be going behind clouds. Pulled over and shut off truck to get better look. After disappearing and then reappearing 3-4 times it disappeared for good. It was difficult to follow optically for some reason. Like it was shifting or out of focus. After I got home I could see no sign of it but another plane was moving in the same direction. Couldn't tell what type of plane that was. Re-entering space debris. PD

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.

Every night thy show up. Circling around. They move directly depending on the night. There was less of them last night. You best send someone out to get good videos before they are gone. I have full video if you wanted me to send them. The files are to large. I do not dare edit them. The last time I did that, the video was erased!

Fueling at the BZI project west of cedar, I seen lights to the north, I started recording, something ran in front of my truck, flashing my headlights, I turned to record it, I seen the bright lights, and the first UFO. it was going south to north, then faded. I watched one after the other, coming left to right, then right to left. I got video of some of them, but editing here at home, my video was cut and not uploaded. The last time I seen them, I was in my truck, they pulled my electrical, and partially disabled my fuel pump. This time, as I was out of my truck, what was on the ground with me did no harm.

Something blocked my headlights out. I was recording lights I thought might be UFO'S, it turned out, Something was to my left, it was tall on all fours and ran as soon as I turned the camera to it. I didn't see the light above me to my left until then. They had already disabled my fuel truck twice in previous nights out there.

When first spotted after work from my driveway, lights resembling fireflies in the sky, were moving up, down, back and forth, only visible on the horizon around the planet that's 1/4 from northern horizon from Cedar city. Once I reached my back porch, I grabbed my binoculars, and witnessed a steady stream of staggered formation glowing gold objects. The were only visible as they past above and below that area around the star. They had stopped their eradic movement, as 4 or five passed in formation, high and low, in a near continuous trajectory. This went on for an hour. There was a small brake between the next group, but they kept their staggered formations high and low. One broke formation, and went high to low in a dropping maneuver, but quickly turned and joined the next passing formation. I witnessed this through my binoculars, while on the phone with a friend who had just arrived home. He could not see them from the north side of cedar city. This was the meteor shower they have been talking about. I seen them with tails, moving double the speed of these craft. Satellites, don't act like them, and as I watched them in the first, they are absolutely agile enough to mimic the movement of fireflies. This is my second such incident in a month, I work night in the field fueling equipment alone. This time I had just arrived home with no issues until then. If they are gold flying soccer's, they are not coming as one gold craft, they are here in the hundreds. Nobody cares anymore, maybe you guys do, maybe you don't, but what is happening is an invasion. Biden shouldn't have shot a few of them down, maybe things would be as they were.

Driving on a dirt road to one of my job sites, I seen two lights like headlights shining at me on the other side of my equipment I fuel at night. Once I got to my equipment, I got my phone out to record, the object turned red, and stated to move north west. I videoed the object until a helicopter passed over me in my fuel truck. I felt safe to get out then, so I started my truck up, engaged my PTO fuel pump, reved my truck to 1200 RPMS and got out. My truck has an idle shut off, so when the PTO is engaged, the truck will not shut down. As I was out, Taking numbers from the equipment, my truck shut down. I was in shock, this has only happened one time before in deep snow. The electrical plug, was pulled off due to ice, this time, I hadn't drove over anything that could have ripped that plug off! The hair on my head stood up, I was not alone, and now, my work lights were off. I walked around my truck, looked under it to see the wire hanging as if something pulled it off to get me in the dark alone. I plugged it in, started my truck up, only to see three helicopters flying around where the craft was hovering. They are not here for peace and love, they tried to possibly contact me, attack, or abduct me. I had a armed encounter with a flying saucer when I was 14, 1989, hunting elk above deer creek. These whistle blowers, have not been on the ground in the daylight, having their saucer in their cross hairs, I have. They are not going to stop now. I can not fuel at night armed, it is against company policy. My truck has strobe lights, and bright halogen work lights, they know my location nightly. The feds may need to watch me fir a few weeks from a distance at night. PS they are on the ground now, I feel they are not just watching us, they are here for more this time.

My girlfriend and I stepped out onto my front porch and I immediately looked up at the stars as I usually do. I noticed an out of place very bright star with an apparent magnitude of around 1 in the northeastern sky, about 60 degrees above the horizon. Almost immediately after spotting it, the light broke into two lights of an apparent magnitude of about 0. These lights moved away from one another at a steady velocity and both faded in brightness until they were no longer visible. One moved northwards, the other southwards. They each moved across about 1/10 of the sky before they faded from sight in less than 5 seconds. I saw them diverge and move apart, and when I pointed it out my girlfriend commented on the bright moving light, as she only saw one. We are both college students with a paper published in the field of astronomy, and have both spent a lot of time looking at stars and the night sky. These objects moved similarly to a satellite, but the bright! ness was unusual. Unless I happened to look up as two unusually bright satellites crossed paths, I cannot think of any explanation for their identity.
