Triangle over Kannapolis/Mooresville, NC
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I was driving home to Mooresville from the Kannapolis area and noticed in the sky there was a triangular shaped aircraft hovering above the trees on the left side of Kannapolis Parkway headed toward Mooresville. It was not moving and did not make a sound. I passed it and then on turning down highway 3, headed toward Mooresville, I was on the phone with my grandmother and had to stop talking I was so shocked at what I saw in the sky. I saw about 5 or 6 hovering triangular aircraft with 3 lights on each angle lining the road. As I approached Odell School Rd and Hwy 3 intersection, I saw to my left about a quarter of a mile away roughly 8-10 if not more lights in the sky that were moving around erratically in strange formation. The lights spanned close to half a mile and were a good distance away.

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.
