As reported

Circle over Lexington, KY

A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.

The report, as filed

3 of us had just arrived back at my step-daughter's appartment, when I noticed 4 circle shaped obj cts traveling southward in the sky. They appeared to be 3000 to 5000ft or maybe higher. They were white in color and had no aircraft marker lights. I estimate that they were moving around 90 knots. I didn't have my phone handy but did have a pair of binoculars in my car. I grabbed them and zoomed in to only see 4 white round lights, and as before mentioned, there were no type of any aircraft marker/navigational lights on the objects. As they continued southward towards the horizon, a neighbor approached and asked what were we looking at. Once we told her, we gave her the binoculars, and she witnessed them as well. When we first observed these 4 lights, the formation was one in front, then some space, then two closer together, and more space, and finally the fourth following. There was absolutely no sound emitted from these craft or objects. Final visual on these! objects before last seen, with binoculars, they were in the southern sky, but their formation had changed and appeared in a pyramid form from left to right. I do not believe they were any type of convential or earthly aircraft. These objects were white circle lights without proper navigational lighting and again, emitted no sound at all.

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.

Bright object similar to iss but iss not visible my location during sighting. Object visible every few days around 9-930 pm. Object takes a different orbit per sighting. Also China space station not visible during sighting. Object brightness I think is reflection from sun.

Overcast day rainy, fog, on my way to work shocked to see massive blue glow like macaroni shape 100 yds wide approx. almost can see it but just enough cloud and fog to cover it. No sound, drove right under it as I exited. Interesting road name directly under the sighting area indicates horses or farm animals may have drawn the craft to this area.

While reading on my back porch the sound of a passing jet caught my attention and I looked upwards. At an approximately 75° angle up and looking NNE I saw a jet pass between two clouds and noticed beyond the jet a circular object very bright which seem to reflect the sunlight. It appeared to be much higher in altitude than the plane and clouds and was completely stationary for the approximately 10 to 15 seconds I observed it. I went inside my home to get a pair of binoculars for a better look but when I returned the object had disappeared.

Also on 04/30/2020. I saw a blue light in the sky around 1145pm. 2 weeks before that I saw 2 flashing blue lights not blinking but flashing back and forth. on May 15th 2022 around 11:30 pm I was admiring the moon and decided to take pictures. Once I looked at my pictures I noticed a large white curved line behind the moon then on another picture a straight large white line. Then on another a small white line. I didn't know what they were but they looked unusual.. I've zoomed in on my phone and I'm not sure. I've showed my pictures to a few people and they could not believe it!!! After hearing about the sightings in Las Vegas last month. I decided maybe it was time I reached out to someone also. This is not a hoax but if nothing is there I do apologize for taking up your time. I am sending you the images from my phone. Not sure how to answer the following questions so I will leave them blank for you to see the images. Nothing landed. Please contact me with your results.Thank you

I was bird watching, as I was looking up at the sky I noticed something circle shaped color of aluminum foil in the sky at first I thought it was a plane then I realized it looked around and the sun making the color stand out It just stayed floating I didn't take my eyes off it about 20 min passed.then it just went straight up. I know what I saw and it wasn't a plane.
