The report, as filed
first a white cross-shaped object came by, hovered and moved slowly behind trees and was gone. see photo. it had spheres on the end of each of the 4 legs. one sphere was lit with a red light. a few minutes later a red orb came to the same area, hovered and then disappeared. it had a ring of white lights around it. see photo. in the 4 second video you will hear crickets, but the other sound is from the craft.

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.
