Flash over Bellevue, WA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Over hour's worth of time, anywhere from 15-25 minutes apart, three consecutive flashes appeared outside my house 8 times throughout the night. It was as though lightning had struck, but without thunder or a rumble of dispersing electricity from said flash. I watched for them after every of the three flashes that would go off, waiting for the time amounted until i saw it was directed at me from the sky. Or at least that's what it looked like. It is foggy and cloud filled skies at this time of 7am now. I haven't SEEN a UFO per say, as though the flashes came from thin air. But i did notice it (the flashes) were relatively close to being probably 30ft to 60ft diagonally from my window into the sky that I could see into, but not seeing any occupants inhabiting the skies. The air feels frizzy and my blanket is shocking me fore i think it is because of these paranormal flashes. This is my report.

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.

Lights that hover, move and hover over downtown Bellevue. One of many lights that appear, hover and eventually depart.

The images are of a cylindrical aircraft flying across the nighttime Bellevue sky. The first image is blown up, the second is from a distance. I didn’t see wings or flashing lights, so I’m fairly certain it’s not an airplane.

Two images of the craft, one from a distance and one blown up. To me, appears to be a tiny manned craft, but that’s just a guess.

I was in the passenger seat with the window down, and I was taking a photo of the moon. I saw a bright light flash by as I took the photo. As seen in the photo, there is no lamp post where the light shines onto the bridge. 2 photos- one without the light (different location on the bridge) and one of the light I saw pass by as I took photo.

I see these every night without fail. They might pass for aircraft, but they fly low to the ground and are silent. They appear to carry people, but there doesn’t appear to be a cabin. I am concerned because I have seen men in military uniforms piloting them (militia?). It’s my hope the U.S. government will at least investigate. Given the military uniforms I fear they might have a political agenda and may be planning acts of domestic terrorism. My photos aren’t great, but I am willing to hand over the images I have to the authorities. If there’s a plausible explanation for what I’m seeing I don’t know what it is.
