Diamond over Houston, TX
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Yesterday, I reported seeing a diamond moving over my townhouse in Spring Branch, Texas (Houston), I go upstairs and I started hearing jets. I hear passenger jets all the time as I'm under a flight path but these were loud! I call the dog and we go downstairs, as soon as i got to the same spot I daw saw the object, two fighter jets came flying by! F-22 or F-16 and they were low and banking. It made me feel weird as I have never seen that before, not in my neighborhood. I tried to record them but all I got was the sound of engine. Something went down yesterday for sure. Around the I-10 & Beltway 8 area I live a little NE of there. There's a YouTube video fighter jets over Houston somebody else saw them. Thanks!

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.

As I was watching a dog walking down Grannis street, towards Easthaven Blvd, a large angular object entered my view and was approximately 10’ off the road. It passed beneath the street light, had circles that gave it a gray mottled appearance and it appeared to be approximately 16’ in length. It had no lights, made no sounds, but it startled the dog as it flew over the intersection.

I have pictures of an object that started out as a white octagon shape and then changed its shape. I cannot describe it where it makes since. I took pictures on both days. June 4 , 2023 and June 6, 2023 at night. There were no stars in the sky and thats what initially got my attention. The octagon shape changed to a roundish shape and then there was a white hue around it and then a colorful hue. It never moved. I have other pictures and a video also. I have showed people and they think they see a face but I do not. There is a definite triangle shape. Anyway, I just need someone to look at the pictures and give me their opinion. This really happened. I took these on my cellphone with no flash. [NUFORC annotation: Planet/Star - Probable]

Please don't disregard this. I have pictures of an object that started out as a white octagon shape and then changed its shape. I cannot describe it where it makes since.

This was 1 of 4 I saw within an hour. This was the 3rd. Moving at what I believe was an altitude of 5 to 10k ft. from west to east. Steady speed, no lights, looked like a brown orb the size of a small van. I have a video posted to Instagram. https://www.instagram.com/reel/CpL6_1pJzEk/?igshid=MDJmNzVkMjY=
