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.

Loudon, TN

While driving on the Interstate, I looked into the sky saw 20-30 ball shaped metallic objects. They seemed to be like birds flying in an imperfect formation. They were reflective. They made no sound. Each individual object moved in a windmill type manner. The objects were spinning and moving forward in the sky. I was able to snap a picture of the event. In the picture, you will see the unidentified objects at the bottom, and there is a strange colored cloud that appeared only in picture. At time of picture it was only blue skies and these objects. I also took another picture of the objects and they did not appear at all in that picture.
