Circle over Greenfield Twp, PA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I was outside looking at Venus in the sky. Just north-east of Venus there was a blinking light. It was blinking rapidly and move, it would then move back to the exact position. As I watched this for approximately 15 minutes, a plane started to approach from the south and the blinking light truly disappeared within seconds. I watch the sky everyday, I smoke outside my home, I have seen something similar years ago. Except this time you couldn't see it when it left, it just disappeared.

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.
