Sphere over Tarboro, NC
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I was driving down US highway 64 East, when I noticed 7 orange lights flying in formation. They crossed the 4 lane and I pulled off the highway to see better. Other cars also pulled off and got out looking at the objects. No blinking just solid orange lights. I took a video of 3 of the objects and someone yelled out another group was coming across the highway. I saw then but did not video as my phone camera quit working. Next there were several helicopters coming and I could hear the helicopters not the orange objects, no sound from the groups of objects.

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.

Started feeling rumbling around 11 at night . Went out side and almost barely didn't see the dark ufo flying but caught a good glimpse. No lights or no noise just rumbling .

On 3/4/2018, while working in my shed, I heard the dog bark. I stepped out the shed to see what he was barking at. As I stood there, I looked into the sky, I saw what looked like a plane/helicopter go strait towards this light and then disappear. I said to myself that looks weird so I grabbed my cell phone to start recording my phone was to low for video so I ran inside I got my wife's phone and ran back out side and started recording. It appear to me that something was shooting at it. I video taped it and at one point you see it flash in a big glow then move. This is the first sighting I have seen. A few nights before that I was picking something up off the floor in the shed and I looked up and I saw a white face with black eyes looking thru the shed at me. I stepped out the shed thinking it might of been one of my kids playing with me, but no one was there but I felt like someone was watching me. When I went back in the shed it felt like something kept trying ! to plull down my pants and seems like something pinched me and I kind of loss awareness then I came too. I felt kind of odd like something had happen I did notice some scars on my hand and back. But I just ignored it.
