The report, as filed
I seen it off an on all that summer. The first time I was by myself. It was between 10:30 an 11:00 at night. in the northwestern sky a dim light caught my eye. It kept getting bigger an brighter it looked as if was kind of bouncing around. It got closer an closer an it would stop it looked to be about the size of Notre Dame football stadium. Than it would start fading back until it would just disappear I couldn't believe my eyes what I was seeing so I kept it quite until the next night an happened again around the same time I couldn't believe it so I shouted for my lady to see if she was seeing this object we both was feared and excited we knew this wasn't a man made object. This continued on for about three weeks I even talked to my neighbors an together we was all seeing it. The last time I seen it that summer I saw it moving in an out of a storm that was moving through that was the last time I ever saw it.

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.
