Chevron over Warrenton, MO
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
It was a clear night and not a cloud in the sky north and northwest of us. To the South the sky was cloudy due to rain. As I was enjoying the stars, I noticed something traveling at the tree line that appeared to be a huge oblong shaped cloud from a distance. It was traveling about 30 miles per hour and as it reached the front of my house, I looked closer and noticed it was a solid object emitting smoke all over it as if it were trying to appear to be a cloud. The entire time not once did this object make not one noise; in fact, it was very quiet and still when this flew by. I then said to my husband “what is that?!”, he turned around and watched it through the tree, when suddenly it made a hard left and we noticed a wing; as it floated east, I quickly went inside frightened as I have never seen this before. My husband watched it disappear through a tree line behind our house and got a clearer view as it floated away, he claims it was chevron shaped. It had zero lights on it, and was like a dark charcoal gray inside of the cloud appearance. I really wish I would have had my phone to take a video, but this thing flew by so quick I did not have time to get my phone. We both lost sleep over this that night and spent hours researching what we 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.

My mom and I were out walking and as we looked up at the stars, we noticed a pinpoint, single white light moving across the sky at a fast speed. We have both seen airplane lights in the night sky of the same size, but agreed that none ever moved at that speed. We could not see the object that was the origin of the light since it was dark outside. As the light moved across the sky further from us, it was harder to see the light, almost like the light was on the bottom of the object and the angle that we were viewing it at was obstructing our visual of the light.

The lights moved around rapidly changing directions and colors, And shapes. My vehicle was stopped while I was video taping and the window was rolled down I was outside the window filming.

Three orange "fireballs" were seen glowing in the southern sky. They were in a triangle formation: two lights above and one to the left, in the middle, equally spaced. All three moved across the sky headed to the west. During this time, the one further to the left "flickered" & disappeared. The other two lights stayed the same equal distance apart and then the bottom light "flickered" out also. The light at the top continued to move westward and then "flickered" out too. Estimated elevation 6,000 feet. No unusual sounds were heard. Source of report indicates that the date of the incident is approximate. PD
