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.

Lights observed from the flight deck from what appeared to be slightly above or co-altitude with us in the 30's (32000-34000') from a consistent 280 heading over the 600+ mile flight northbound from dfw to rapid city. Distance to lights could not be determined as they were above the horizon. Lights would fade in from a dim red orange and intensely brighten for about 10 seconds before fading away. Lights would often move in different directions including directions that would not make sense for satellites. It was not starlink or meteors stars or planets as some lights moved upward and others downward towards the horizon. Lights would occasionally abruptly change direction and velocity with the appearance of dancing or rotating around each other. Lights were observed from a constant direction but were in no discernable formation. Witnessed by both flight crew and as many as 7 or more aircraft on frequency transiting from as far as the east coast to over Colorado from what we heard.

I stepped outside and was transfixed by a huge, glittering “disco ball” with occasional elongation which didn’t seem to traverse the sky (yet became more distanced after I went to get my phone). At first it looked like it had airplane wings, but ones which were not fashioned typically. I asked myself if it was a drone, balloon, or satellite, but it simply looked different from anything I’ve ever seen. By the time I retrieved my phone inside, I couldn’t see the wings, or elongation, just the ball of bright silver sparkles. I took this from a 1:33 minute video, but it was within my sight for at least 15 or 20 minutes. I hope someone can tell me what it was. Thank you. [NUFORC annotation: Planet/Star - Possible]

I go out side at night and they drop down from the sky . Once to to roof of the house and looked like a stick person with the palms of their hands turn out. Once charged like a bolt of bright LED light causing me alarm and I left and hurt myself and was knocked out trying to get back inside. Small lights often like bees .. bright lights like stick airplanes coming towards me . Always coming towards me . When it’s cloudy they hide in the trees . The ship is invisible with a false bottom. The bottom it the sky . When you look up , it’s like you can touch the sky ,, but look away you see the real sky . Tricky bastards . Tonight they are in the trees with RED lights and making no bones about it … shooting straight towards me ASAP . I tried to film but it didn’t work and I’m not going back outside . There was an orb for along time in the beginning . An orange orb . They follow me when I travel. And my friends have seen them . They don’t come down for them . They have seen them come down with me present . I’m not crazy and it is real .

I was looking at the sky and within 15 seconds of me looking up I saw 7 balls in of lights (all in single file) moving in a snake like way. These balls of light were very close to the roof of Fairfield inn and suites moving southeast. It went over the hotel and I continued to see it moving southeast into the distance and disappear. I have never seen anything like this before. This incident happened at 3:30 a.m. on Christmas Day.

Was in my backyard looking up to the South West sky. Noticed the dimly lit outline of the front two edges of the triangle ship. For a brief moment I could make out the back edge. It appeared to be an equilateral triangle. It was silent. It moved in a straight line across the Western sky. By the time I got my phone out to call my neighbor it had made it to the North edge of my view.

After seeing the bright light in the sky I called my roommate out to watch the light with me. We both observed the light changing its direction of light almost as if the object was scanning different directions. It was hovering in the same place in the sky and we watched an airplane pass in front of it while it floated. I then watched the object slide to the right and back to the left unlike any airplane or helicopter could. We both decided to go inside and come back out in 10 minutes to see if it was still there. When we went back outside to check the object was gone.
