Cigar over Milford, UT
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I was laying on the ground in my back yard with my sons dog. It was a clear day with a few high white cumulus clouds. I saw a cigar shaped object sliding effortlessly through the sky. It was perhaps a mile away and perhaps a 1000 feet in altitude maybe less. It was traveling perhaps at 300 MPH. It mad no sound at all. The object was cigar shaped with a scintillating crystal like end approximately 1/7 of the total length of the object. The nose was round (1/2 sphere). It was shiny like polished aluminum and it reflected the sunlight. Let’s call it “Shiny Silver” in color. I saw this object for just a few seconds. It was flying from north to south. I have over the years seen seen eight sightings in all. With witnesses. My son, my wife, my brothers in law were witness to them. Contact me if you want to discuss them. I made a drawing of the cigar shaped object.

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.

One very bright white light over the top of a mountain, another smaller one next to it that was moving around (occasionally hides behind the big one) and an orange light that would disappear and re-appear closer to the ground than the other two and was moving a lot. When zooming in on these lights with my camera they look like layered rings that expand and shrink in a very erratic way.

The first three did this at the same time in the same places. Then I saw random lights just like the others but only appeared one at a time. They were in the same place in the sky but just south of the first three. Just before I saw what looked like a little piece moon just setting over the mountains. It was a orange hue. But It faded after a few seconds confusing me. Then realizing a few seconds later there was a full moon straight up in the sky so it could not be that. I came back around in my car to see if I could recreate the light. Nothing. About 20 seconds after I saw that first light above the mountains is when I started seeing those weird lights. I tried to record it but it only lasted about 5-10 seconds and my phones camera can't even record video of the moon at night. It was the most unexplainable thing I have ever seen in my life.
