The report, as filed
January 2, 2018. This report is being filed from Rosamond, California. Daylight conditions: partially cloudy. Today at 10:20 AM, while traveling south bound on U.S. Highway 14, approximately between Avenues D and E, an object was spotted at an estimated distance of ¼ mile above the highway. First impressions were that it was a large bird like duck or sea gull. As I kept my attention on the object, it became clear to me that it was not a bird, but perhaps an aircraft. Seconds later, the object is now about two hundred feet ahead of my car, and moving alongside the highway about 150 feet parallel to the highway. As the object flies by my right hand view moving straight with a speed less than my 65 MPH, I can now see that it’s an object about fifty feet in altitude. The object is chrome skinned, appearing smooth, and not a conventional aircraft. I can only estimate that it’s an object about 20 feet in length with an equal height in a pyramid shape. No audible sound was heard from this object as it came at the closest position to my car. Highway 14 was unusually heavy with traffic as many are now returning home from the holidays. Others had to have seen this object.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #138210). Witness text is preserved verbatim, including its spelling; nothing is edited beyond formatting.
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.

While watering the lawn facing north I observed a long rectangular cluster of different sized orangish orb shapes above my neighbors house.the arrangement of the individual orbs had no real pattern or structure And the sizes were varied but all the same color. It moved together like one object but clearly was comprised of several distinctly seperate orbs.i ran inside to get my phone to take a picture and one by one they disappeared. There are no clouds in the sky. I was a little scared so I called a friend, and while on the phone , in the same area of the sky I saw a line of about 6 small bluish lights following each other. I thought that the small ones could be starling as it looked similar but the website says that starlink is not visible in my location for the next 5 days. When the orbs were disappearing it was as if they were passing behind a wall that wasn’t there, moving forward and just gone.. I don’t know how else to describe it.

At approximately 12:15a on 1/28/21, my friend and I were on the phone and she commented on how big the moon was and she wanted to take a picture. In the picture you can see two "orbs". Close-up, they look pointed on one side. She took two back-to-back photos and these two "dots" are in each picture, in slightly different spots, meaning they were moving.

My husband and I love star gazing, own a telescope, and are very familiar with the ufo phenomenon. For a few weeks now we have noticed these amazing lights in the sky. We decided to try and catch them on camera. Unfortunately, we only have a cheap Android phone, so we used it to our best ability before the crafts were gone and the phone lost battery. To get a closer look, we set up our stakeout on our roof. After a cold night and hours later, it appeared again like it had nights before. It began as a circle bright white light moving from south to the north quite faster than anything we had ever seen then it suddenly stopped a few blocks away and hovered over a house for only 2 seconds (as we are scrambling for the camera its light begins to get brighter and turning bright orange and then takes off so quickly back south) we didn't catch footage of this one. But we thought we could stay longer and see if it returns. Well to our surprise another craft flew by maybe an hour later. This one looked much different. It was almost cone shaped (like the orange caution cones) with a bright green light at the top as it was sort of descending down it began to pick up speed again and in the video you can hear me say its not green anymore. Suddenly, it zoomed off to the east were the sun was still rising changing to a bright yellow light. The oddest part about this is the way it would dissapear an then flash the light ever 2 seconds. But each time it appeared it was in a different position it wasnt flying a straight path. Flash up flash forward flash down. Sorry the video couldn't be better quality.

Walking my dog at the park and seeing this very unusual cloud. Looking North, it stood out so much I stopped to take several pictures of it. It was perfectly formed with a dark bottom. There were NO other clouds in the sky. It stayed there for about 30 minutes and then started to dissipate. It didn't seem to move and just hovered in the same place. Photos attached. My dog did not respond to this.
