Triangle over Kanab, UT
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Around 10:20 pm, I noticed a white triangle shaped object, as well as a black triangle object with white lights moving slowly in the sky to the southwest kanab city at about, 8000 ft off the ground or so soon as I thought I need a video recorder it speed up doing flying patterns in the night sky I was able to capture several pictures of the objects then the bright white object that was flying took a disc like shape. And I'd say a few mins after transforming it vanished into the night sky.and when I started taking pictures it had seemed like time had stopped and when I stopped I had food in front of me on our picnic table and vaguely remembered my son asking if that was a ufo also during the pictures I was capturing my phone glitched out and acted like it was freezing and then went back to normal after the two objects 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.

Walking dogs at 12:05am, saw tear dropped shaped white light ball with a long streak/trail after it flying downward from the south towards the north in the western sky from the point of town. No sound, no landing noise. Figured it was so close it should have landed north of here in Coral Punk Sand Dunes. Very bright and beautiful. Meteor?

It did not blink, just glowed orange. It moved about the same speed as a satellite, but it appeared closer than a satellite would normally be seen. Size was similar to holding up a nickel at arms length. It moved east to west for about 2 minutes, then curved sharply to head south. I ran in to get the camera, and of course by the time I got back it had disappeared. We could not hear an engine or any kind of noise that might be associated with a flying craft of some sort. There was a little traffic noise, so it’s possible we might have missed it. Made for an exciting evening ( almost anything would liven up Kanab in the winter!!!) You asked for background info… I was an ((deleted--medical professional)) for years, then did a couple of ((deleted--public employment)),but then found my dream job.
