Light over Bonne Terre, MO
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Then it slowly dimmed out, twice. Each time slowly lighting back up. Then it changed course again as it began to drop straight down below the horizon. It dimmed out and disappeared twice more. Each time it would dim out it would slowly reappear in the same spot it had disappeared. Like it stopped moving to disappear and continued dropping again! once it lit up again. Then it fell below the tree line and disappeared for good. I watched that area of the sky for a few minutes and then I watched a shooting star shoot from the right of the object away from me. The shooting star was low on the horizon, which was odd. This was not a plane nor helicopter as it was too high up, moved too slow, had no flashing lights, and stayed stationary for minutes. My fiance also witnessed this and admits it was not explainable. I've never seen a UFO until this. And it seemed to disguise itself as a star. When it first began there was an airplane in the sky, way far away from this object.

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.

I took another video and zoomed in a lot and you can faintly see them, but the video shows a lot. It was truly the craziest thing I’ve seen, and it was right in front of my house. We have amended the time, to reflect a nighttime sighting. PD

While fishing seen a very bright light, as bright a Venus, in the North sky. It was moving much faster than the three planes flying in the sky at the same time. It traveled towards the East and the light stopped glowing and we could see a very large cigar shaped object not making a sound as it passed over and continued traveling East until it was out of sight. Dogs around the area were barking very aggressively as it passed over.
