Light over Omaha, NE
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
There are several links to video. ((ADDENDUM FROM RADIO LISTENER)) Hi there. I was listening to "coast to coast AM" and I heard you ask about it. Yes I was ending a date that night about 1:22am and I was scraping her windows while she was in her car. All of a sudden I seen a reflection like the police helicopter just shined their lights on me I turned around and nothing. She asked "what was that light?" I said, "I don't know". I did not hear a boom, but some other did from what the news said. All I know is that-that light was bright!!! Like I said, I thought the police helicopter shined their light on me, and not even two seconds later, it was gone. In the morning they were talking about it on the news and did say some people heard a boom. I personally didn't and I was outside. Btw the date went great but she lost interest later on down the road. Thanks, ((name deleted)) ((END ADDENDUM)) 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.

Looking to the west, this object moved from south to north at a constant pace. Too fast for a plane/drone, too high for a bird and did not leave a contrail. Object was a black pill shape and did not have any lights flashing/strobeing and did not reflect any sunlight. At first I heard the sound of a plane in the distance but did not see any planes anywhere until I noticed what I thought was a black bird soaring high in the sky then realized it wasn't a bird or a plane. Object was making a humming sound the entire time of travel. I used to live by Offut AFB and have seen some weird lights and vehicles in the sky as well as odd sounds. Never seen anything like this. This Object was definitely not a b52 at cruising altitude or a plane.

Jerry and I both saw 3 orb like objects in the sky last night. They were glowing red/orange bright light. They were very low. About 500-800 ft in the sky. They were in a straight line. Then they started moving slowly towards the south. As they moved forward one paused in front of our house and then went west and disappeared. The other two continued south slowly and paused in our side yard airspace then slowly dimmed and disappeared. I don’t know how to explain what they could have been. The dogs woke us up around 12:45am. It went on until about 12:59 am. It was amazing. One of the orbs sat right outside our balcony and just dissolved away. They were very large and glowing. I could hear a faint humming sound.

I was leaving the house, looking up at the sky like I always do, and spotted a fine point (star) however this one was moving and behind it another, and another. They were all moving in a perfect line and spaced between one another. No commercial lights. Two of the 16, actually shined an intense, becoming more brighter than the rest that has past by. It doesn’t end there, I went to my brothers place, about 5 miles away and we both looked up and at one point didn’t see anything and then 2 free floating lights flying, however not in formation like before at my house.

10-15 even spaced lights moving across sky east to west then vanished once they all hit the same Spot in the sky.
