A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
The night of the July 28th, 2019 around 11:30 pm my daughter and I were watching meteor showers from our back deck, when we noticed a bright white object traveling at a high rate of speed. It was large and moving fast; my daughter said it was moving toward us. We couldn’t hear any sound; we kept asking each other what the heck this thing was. When it got right in front of us it just disappeared in a blink of an eye. It was so weird we watched to see if it would reappear but it didn’t, it was if it knew we were watching. We stayed out looking and watching for about half an hour and only saw a few more meteors and a couple of satellites.

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.

At aproximately 02:30 am my son and i were out at night stargazing when we saw 2 circular illuminated glowing orbs moving across the sky. The two objects seem to light up brighter and then dim down. They were moving at a high rate of speed, possibly 2000 miles per hour!! Then they just blinked out/gone. Date above is approximate, and has been assigned arbitrarily. PD
