Triangle over Overland Park, KS
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I continued home, turned into my cul-de-sac (just 30secs away from initial catching of attn). I saw two bright lights, greenish-blue, parallel to each other (mimicking a military helicopter, with the parallel and straight form) hovering steadily. The lights weren't flashing, though. it was still and so silent. Something randomly hit me subconsciously, and the hair on the back of my neck stood up. The, what i thought was helicopter, seemed to be 3mi out at that point. I immediately grabbed my phone and fumbled to the rec. button. And as soon as i raised my phone to rec, the aircraft instantly moved. I was spotting it in the south, it was hovering steadily, no flashing of its green/blue lights, just hovering (thats why I thought it was just a helicopter at first. via perspective). As soon as i lifted my phone to rec what i was seeing the craft turned and sped towards me and my daughters direction. By the time I realized that this thing was a triangle shape, it was slowly gliding over us, about 1000ft up. It was completely silent. my initial thoughts were a giant drone, but it was eerily quiet out. It slowly moved over my head, no sound, triangular shaped, back two 'wing lights' were lit up with greenish blue lights, the rest of the craft was illuminated somehow, just not externally. It very well could have been the extremely bright and vivid lights of the crafts wings. As the object moved overhead towards the north, I got a good look at its underside. it was ribbed like strips of metal work or the belly of a turtle. the material the ship was made of wasnt shiny or prone to glare like metal. it acted more like paper or plastic, but it undoubtedly had the resemblance of the resilience and toughness of metal. As it passed over my head, it began blinking the green and blue lights, now including red center light. It stoppped about 100yds out, backed up, did an elongated turn and continued north, still flashing its lights. I've never came across such an equally terrifying exp. and curiosity spiking exp. My daughter was freaked out. SHe calmed down fine after a bit. Had my dog sitter tell me , with out speaking of what happened to her (I'm seriously a bit freaked out and still don't want to come off as insane as i know i sound lol), apparently my dog was unapologetically barking at the sky and very upset and something outside, heavily indicating the sky. This was 20 min before I came home and had my exp. Exar9uperience lasted, in all, around 5 min.

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.

Saw 3 fast circular lights going in an out of the clouds and then they would disappear and come back again for approximately 4 seconds. The video posted does not capture anything because it stopped after but that is where I saw it

Spherical-ish shaped, orange light traveled from east to west overhead. I thought it might be a lantern, but it moved across the sky (overhead) too fast.

Two friends and myself were sitting in the parking lot of the oak park mall facing west towards Gardner Kansas. We were admiring the sunset and the odd shapes of the clouds in the sky when we noticed a pyramid shaped craft with at least 3 orbs underneath it moving in a circular motion. When I pointed out the odd looking craft/object my friends also were able to confirm they were witnessing it as well. While watching this I made a comment about the shapes of the other clouds in the sky. There were very blatant iconic shapes made of the clouds. One was the eye of Horus and another was an ankh shape. It was as If this craft was creating this for us but the craft was doing nothing at all aside from hovering high up and rotating it orbs underneath. My friends and I were not under any kind of influence nor had any of us not slept recently or any thing like that. This was one of the most odd experiences of my life. On a final note both me and my friend who was in the passenger seat of my car filmed this thing as well as took pictures with our cell phones. When we went to look at the videos and photos later, they were all either missing or were so distorted that you couldn't make out anything in the pictures or videos at all. The missing videos, photos, and distorted pics worried all of us a lot. We hadn't spoken to anyone outside of us who were in the car about this event so it was very odd that the media would be missing or corrupted as it was.

This item was brighter than a star and moved more than any star. No noise bright light surrounded by blue light. Looked like a diamond in the sky.

I was driving home from work on Saturday, November 30th at approximately 9:35 pm (CST) when I noticed bright lights darting across the clouds in the sky. At first I thought they might be searchlights, but they kept changing shape. They went from circular to oval and were flickering as they darted across the sky in random patterns. I continued watching the lights as I pulled into my subdivision I realized that the lights weren’t coming from earth, but shining down and glowing above the cloud line. They suddenly began blinking and elongating into a V formation, similar to airport runway lights. (The closest airport is in Olathe, Kansas, a good fifteen minutes south west of my location.) The lights remained in this formation, blinking three times before meeting up at the tip of the V and completely vanishing. It was the most bizarre thing I’ve ever seen in my life. I wish I hadn’t been driving. I would have pulled out my cell phone and recorded the lights.
