Unknown over Bellevue, WA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Not a sighting. Only sound. Inside home - slider door open, house backs up to wetland/forest. Sound volume was between a conversational voice volume and a whisper. It was 'machine-like' but undulated. It was extremely rhythmic and consistent in volume. It started close and very slowly moved from bedroom to hall and to living area and down stairs to daylight basement (with no obvious exit) until it finally disappeared. No possible chance of 'dreaming' - I was sitting up and fully awake but dared not make a sound. 'Height' of sound off the floor stayed consistent. Sound did vary at one point as it moved away. It was not seen. There was no change in odor or temperature. It sounds stereo-typically like an alien humming that you might see in a movie. There was no light emitted. The sound implied a size like a bowling ball. It made no noise on the hard wood floors as it moved away. It could be distinctly heard for more than 5 minutes. It moved very slowly. Nothing like this has been heard by me ever before. Weather outside is a dense fog. Source of the report elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

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.
