Chevron over St. Paul, MN
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I was out looking for Bigfoot, in the hills around St Paul, Minnesota, over the weekend, after enjoying a nice meal at McDonald's. I was separated from my group of expeditionists, and I saw a bright light that seemed to move in a zig-zag pattern. I was confused at first, but thought nothing of it, until it seemed to get larger, and closer. I realized it was actually a metal craft that was shaped like the a chevron, kind of like what you see on a gas station sign for a chevron location. I felt frozen in place as the bright lights got closer to me, and I couldn't move. I felt a strange warmth engulf me, and then I was in a strange place, it metal. I wasn't alone, I couldn't make them out, there was a strange haze in the air, and a buzzing in my ears. The entities or what have you got close to me but I still couldn't see them, my vision got blurry. Then suddenly I was back on the trail, and my companions found me, near the Mississippi River bluffs, saying that I'd disappeared for about 35 minutes. Please help. Hoax.

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.

Was driving home after work and I saw 4 bright lights sitting hovering in place just above the highway. I thought it looked very strange and opened my window and I saw what looked like a single engine prop plane with 4 very bright lights hovering in place not moving with no noise about 250 feet in the air it continued to hover in my rear view mirror as I past it and I turned around to see if it was still there but it was not, possible I could just need some sleep but it was strange enough to call a family member about it.

A friend and I were sitting on the deck at my house. We were looking at the moon facing south and out of nowhere this bright red light moved into view going west. It moved pretty fast and then abruptly stopped and hovered for a few seconds. Then it moved up really quickly and again stopped. The red light changed to a dim green color, then faded out into white at which point it changed back to bright red before moving west again. It dropped down again and hovered a few seconds before quickly moving west and out of view. It was about 9:00 at night. There were no clouds in the sky and it made no noise. I don't know how high up in the sky it was but I'm guessing a height at which a small plane would fly. There is a lot of air traffic here but I've never seen anything that would just suddenly stop and change color like this. I can't figure out what this was!

Heading to bed at 23:40 and glanced outside the window and noticed a very bright object in the western sky. I thought it was a planet or a light but upon closer inspection, I noticed that there was movement - hovering sideways. I asked my wife to come to the window to get her take. The first words out of her mouth were, “Holy heck! What on earth is that?!” We both noted that it was moving/shimmering side to side. Unfortunately, I left my glasses downstairs but even so when I stared closer, I could see that red and bright yellow lights were swirling around the object's center. My wife had her glasses on and, again, corroborated my description. It hovered for about 15 minutes and then dropped slowly downward. Unfortunately, a large tree obscured most of the detail, so we didn’t see where it went. The object appeared to be far away, so it was difficult to determine size.

so my husband was out having a cigarette and called me out to look at the weird lights above the tree line. bright lights one at a time about 15 seconds apart. they were in a horizontal line. they got to a certain point and just disappeared. They must've been very high as they appeared as really small dots. so weird. one just drifting across the sky in a straight line followed by another followed by another etc there were 11 total. it lasted about 3 minutes. I called my daughter and she said spacex was supposed to launch satellites. so I went in and checked and they were supposed to launch in a couple of days this was the 14th . very odd indeed.

ok so I just sent in a report and was looking and it was basically the same as a report on 3/15 regarding looking like satellites, but ours was from south to north not west to east the burnaby canada sighting.. just wanted to update.
