Light over Lebanon, ME
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Saw what seemed to be stars in the night sky, however these “stars” were lined up and moving in a straight line. It’s unknown as to how many there were, there was not enough time to count before they disappeared behind the cover of trees. I would say it was at least 15 of these lights moving in a tight single file line all close together except for 3 in the back that were farther back and more spread out than the others. However they all appeared to be in a straight line moving the same direction. Unfortunately my phone was dead but I don’t believe it would have been able to capture it without a better lens anyway. I’ve never seen anything like this, especially in Maine, but I could not find a reasonable explanation as to what could cause this. Space Link satellites. PD

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.

Sitting in an open field area at campground. Bright white disk above us flew around and hovered for a few minutes, it then tipped on its side and flew off and disappeared. It had a mist like look to it on the bottom and on top it had looked like a layer or two on its top. It made a swishing sound and low vibration in the air around it.
