The report, as filed
I noticed it from my bedroom apartment building window, then I went up to the rooftop to see it as clearly as possible it ws extremely small from my vantage point but it ws like a star in the sky but it wasn't ... I look out this window every day and I am well aware of the positioning of the stars from my window ... at night but it was bright and beautiful weather and sunny... it started moving slowly then it would drift down slightly as if it were a balloon but it wasn't I am one HUNDRED Percent SURE !!! then it would drift up ward and stay put!!!! And I tryied to video and take pictures because people are so fickle nobody believes things of this sort but I wasn't seeing things that's for sure ... a plane would fly pass it and it would drift as if it was falling out of the ski then once the plane was pasted it would drift upwards as it it were going backwards in no particular direction but far off ... I did capture as much as I could I am still in awe of it I! had been waiting to see a UFO for as long as I can remember but looking upwards all the time isn't something a person in the city does that often if at all ... I wanted to share this because it intrepid and scary yet fascinating all at the same time

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.

Between 2:14.53 and 2:42.51 AM an image appears in front of my house in the night sky. It is initially faint in appearance but gradually gets clearer. It fades again but appears sharper at the end of the first 46 second video. In the second video, 2:42.51 AM; the image/object appears to stretch out and separate.

I returned home around 2:30 am & in my window saw 1 aircraft that I assumed was a plane. I watched it for several minutes & when it continued blinking colors I grabbed my binoculars & saw that it was not a plane. It had stopped moving when another craft appeared near it. I woke my partner up & we ended counting 3 crafts near, but not next, to each other. They were amongst/hidden by clouds for a couple minutes, however, you would still see the lights. After watching for 30 minutes we witnessed a bright light shoot vertically from in between 2 of the aircraft’s down toward the ground. The light disappeared & we had not heard a sound or any news reports. We watched them for a total of 3-4 hours before fall asleep. We assumed they remained in the sky.

I was at work, up on a extension ladder, assisting a co-worker, who was up on a steep roof painting a dormer. My job was just serve as a “weight” so he would not fall. At some point, I saw an object flying at high velocity, flying toward the northeast part of town. I told my co-worker about it, but he could not turn around on time, plus he thought I was messing with him. Then, I stopped seeing the object, mainly because my sight started seeing “dots” in sky! The one thing I am sure I saw, was an object flying very fast. It wasn’t a plane (it was too fast), I wasn’t a paper. It did look like that TicTac ufo that was reported by the Navy video that I saw on TV. Everything lasted less than 20 seconds.

We were outback celebrating and I notice some bright lights in the sky. I started recording because I didn’t think they were stars like most people thought. I usually look at the sky at night and never saw those before plus they were moving slowly across the sky. I counted at least 10 lights. 3 in the front in a somewhat line, 3 in the middle shaped like a triangle, 2 in the rear spaced apart a little further and 2 small one blinking over top.

Sitting outside after an event, I looked up and saw several lights , not blinking , not flying like any aircraft or drones. No sound. The lights were in a loose straight line formation, then the first 3 formed a tight triangle, followed by the next 2 sets of 3. Then they started to go loose straight again before I lost sight of them. Several witnesses, maybe one got video, I am not sure.

Saw this in the sky from my deck off of my kitchen. It was just shiny, so I snapped a pic and when I zoom in, it's not a plane.
