The report, as filed

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.

Orange orb intercepted by oncoming orange orb. Separated into three orbs after becoming large and bright. Have videos. ((ADDENDUM FROM WITNESS)) No, it was last night July 16th (sic. 15th.) 2016. Apologies for the misinformation. I was somewhat befuddled by the whole incident. Thank you for the inquiry. I wasn't sure how to correct the date. I have three videos ranging from 5+ minutes to just over 1. Sincerely, A very sober and non drug taking/using, ((name deleted)) ((END ADDENDUM))
