Unknown over University City, MO
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
As I was drawing the blinds to our south facing window, I saw something hovering above the tree line, approximately 200-300 yards away over Washington University. It had two blinking red lights and had drone like hovering. It continued to go back and forth (east and west) and would sometimes dip below the tree line and disappear. It did this for about 10 minutes and then took off flying northeast, at which time, we saw a small green light turn on. It flew pretty closely past our house and no sound was heard. We moved to the north side of the house and watched it fly out of sight and it disappeared. If it was a drone it had a really long range it was operating in.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #145537). Witness text is preserved verbatim, including its spelling; nothing is edited beyond formatting.
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.
