Circle over New Hope, PA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Driving on the bridge in New Hope, Pa., decided to take a picture of the water. Once I got home I looked through all the pictures I took that day and noticed the one with the water , at the top left corner was a shining circle and seemed like a cloud on it. My phone is an iPhone 7 so when you take a picture you get about 5 seconds of video. I zoomed in and held the screen down and it was moving around with rings around the circle. This was at 10:03 am. We have yet to see the photos. Possible lens flares?? 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.

The caller seemed very genuine and in awe over the sighting. I felt compelled to report it.

While traveling south on route 202, I saw approximately 20 bright, orange, circular lights traveling north east in a group. They flew in a slow, quiet group with no specific formation. A few stragglers came up behind the group and I was able to capture a photo on my phone of one of the stragglers. They eventually seemed to disappear. They looked very bright orange with a bright yellow/white center. Date may be approximate. PD

a bright 'falling' star that didn't fall but had trails of vapor and revolved so I could see the cigar or disk shape.
