Light over White Sulphur Springs, WV
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I just got home and noticed a weird light in the sky. The light bounced around, picked up speed, and would slow down as it got closer to my house. There was also approximately five drones in the sky surrounding the area of my home. I went inside and about five minutes later everything lit up outside of my house and was back to darkness in about five seconds. Side Note: Most nights there is at least two drones flying around my house. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. 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.
