A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Thursday, the 26th of April, upon arriving home it was about 8:10pm, still daylight. After unlocking my home I walked up my driveway to retrieve my mail. After gathering the mail and proceeding back to my house, I began to hear a “buzzing” sound not unlike a bee. At first the sound was faint, but in a few seconds the noise increased in volume until it began to hurt my ears. My first thought was it was a swarm of bees after me. I started running to take refuge in my garage, but before going in, I looked back to see what it might be. Seeing nothing, but still hearing the now unbearable sound, I looked to the sky and saw two red rings, very high in the sky traveling at a very high rate of speed. As quick as the noise appeared it disappeared, along with the red rings. I ran into my home and called 911 and explained to the operator what I had just witnessed. She told me a Sheriff’s Deputy would contact me. The Deputy indeed did make contact and a report was filed. I am convinced that what I saw was not of this world, as I can think of nothing that flies as fast nor as high. Source of report is a very successful businessman. 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.

I was driving to work at 2:52 AM when I noticed a bright green orb floating in the air. My dash cam also picked up the footage.

Saw a triangle craft, with lights at each corner, could have been military. Warning, ufo's are radioactive and can give a person cancer, accept if they are air sightings. If you were to see one up close could be harmful to health.

I was in my room, doing homework, and I noticed a thunder-like noise outside. I went to open my window to hopefully hear a thunderstorm. That’s when I noticed it. 5 disks, or ‘orbs’ of white/yellow light in a hexagonal formation, and one in the center with a colour I have never seen before. Indescribable. It is about 100-150 feet from the ground and slowly floating away from my general area. Even though it floated so slowly, it got far fast. My first thought was “go get your phone go get your phone”, but I wanted to really understand what I was seeing and it was a mix between pure shock, and fear keeping my body in place. There was no rain tonight, and it is relatively clear. I live in an area crowded with trees, but because of housing, some areas are clear in paths.

As was reported to my local Mufon chapter office. And it was mentioned by Nuforc but did not include video which I will submit to you. I was out walking as I usually do along the waterfront on December 9, 2020, at about 8:16 pm at the Sinclair Inlet when I looked up and saw an amber sphere which I thought at first was a drone. But as i listened, I could only hear background traffic noise. I tried to tell if it had structure, but it did not. It seemed to notice me noticing it. Still thinking it was a drone and someone was playing a prank, I turned around and started walking the other direction. It seemed to be following me. I turned around to look at it again and it “aflamed” and disappeared. After walking about 50 feet I looked to my left and it seemed to be following me as I walked up the hill. Again, I looked at it and it aflamed and disappeared. I turned around and walked back toward my truck, and again saw the sphere now on my right following along side. I got to my truck and drove off. I was surprised that I was the only one noticing it, no cars stopped to look at it, as you can hear traffic in the background. Very odd. I had the presence of mind to video record the sighting with my iPhone 8 Plus. At one point I zoom in. Has anyone else seen this type of sphere?
