Cylinder over Creston, NC
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
On August 19, 2019 at approximately 7:02 p.m. ET in Creston, NC, I saw a silver cylinder shaped object about the size of a bus moving through the sky from a northeast direction toward a southerly direction. No noise, no lights, no wings. It was moving quickly and although the skies were cloudy, there were intermittent breaks in the clouds where I spotted this “thing”. I watched it until it disappeared into a cloud. Some months back, I saw an object which looked the same on two different occasions, but there were two of them at that time. One went over followed by another one shortly thereafter which looked identical. The first time the objects were going from a southerly direction toward the northeast. The second time I saw them, which I believe was the next evening before dark,, there were also two of the objects going in the opposite direction. One following the other with a good distance between them so as both were not visible together. Someone posted a picture from California on this site which I saw and it looked the same as the object I saw.

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.
