Formation over Oak Point, NY
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
On November 14th. With my son, I called out to him as I saw 8 orange moving dots in two sets of four. These were two groups of orange colored lights about 8 to 10,000 feet and maybe 10 miles away. The two groups were running in unison and were maybe 1500 yards apart – their movement appeared synchronized as the lights moved parallel to the earth’s surface. I watched them for 20 to 30 seconds and my son saw the tail end of the lights. The lights all dipped together and then simultaneously disappeared.

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.
