Diamond over Rockford/ Cherry Valley, IL
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I was on my way home from work. I saw two bright lights in the sky. I brushed it off at first thinking it was just two planes. They were flying really low. Then suddenly the bright lights went off. I saw three different light colors. Blue, red, and white. They kept meeting up and spliting up. I actually have four videos of them. The main lights kept going on and off. It looked like a diamond shaped disks.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #141754). 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.
