The report, as filed
I was driving to pick up my daughter in Amherst, NY, and in the sky a green sphere shaped object was moving slowly west toward Tonawanda. It seemed quite large considering it was a good mile from me (I was near Millersport. It was roughly at Bailey Ave) no sound. lost sight of it, but when I picked up my daughter, she had seen it also. 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.
