Light over Richardson/Garland, TX
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
The sky was pretty clear last night as I was able to see all the stars etc... I was looking up at the sky and noticed 4 very dim lights EXTREMELY high in the sky (you really had to focus to see those 4 lights (50% visible) seemed like they were in space that's how far it looked like they were) and it was moving south I would say. Those 4 lights were REALLY far apart from each other but symmetrically aligned and was moving diagonal then straight and then again diagonal. Those 4 lights were in perfect sync with each other and the lights were all horizontal and not a triangular form or anything. After it passed the moon, they disappeared. I really was spooked out and had goosebumps. My buddy did not believe me at all. It's hard for anyone to believe until they see it for themselves and I KNOW WHAT I SAW LAST NIGHT... definitely were not planes or anything, I am 110% positive as they are more blinking lights and would be one big solid light from down here. I saw! 4 lights . . . like this

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.
