Light over Hartford, KY
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Been seeing 3 bright lights in the sky. They are too bright to be stars. They slowly move across the sky as the night goes on. Was driving down 62 from rosine to beaver dam and that's when I see all 3 of them at once. One by the moon. It was the lowest. It looked like the shape of a ship. Then the other two were spaced evenly apart across the sky. They just looked like really really bright stars. They appear every night in the sky over Ohio county (Hartford) Kentucky. Not sure what they are but definitely sure they aren't stars. Has anyone else seen these bright lights? Tonight they disappeared early tonight around midnight but I can usually still see them when coming inside to go to bed at 1:00am. They are in the sky every night. They changed color from white to yellow to red.

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.
