Triangle over Eureka, UT
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Black triangular with (larger than normal aircraft) 3 red lights 1 at each point of the craft Locally known as "military operated Delta craft" by not formally disclosed. They seemed to fly in a circular pattern around the area low and very slow almost hovering at times. The apparently mobile makeshift landing and takeoff zone was located in a narrow valley between the city of Eureka and Silver City. There were orange light balls falling from very high altitudes (resembling meteors) the Delta's would dart towards these objects and circle them in close proximity. I observed one of the Delta's actual collide with one of the objects knowing it off course. We are not convinced that this is a serious report. 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.

Bright, star-sized, light, flying from West to East at very high speed, moving in a relatively straight line, except it was zigzagging a lot like an insect. Object did not disappear, until it reached beyond the horizon line. Note: Two other unusual lights were seen that night with binoculars, but too dim and far away to substantiate, very high speed. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Eureka, UT
It was a little past 22:00 hrs. last night. I was outside letting my dog use the restroom before I put him into his pen. Something caught my eye in the sky. It seemed that it flashed that is what caught my attention but as I finally focused on it, it was black looked kinda triangular was silent and didn't move like a bird. Was very steady not very high in the sky at all and was moving southwest.
