Circle over Palermo, CA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I was sitting on my front porch when I noticed 5 to 8 round objects flying in a line one after the other. At first I thought that it was an odd group of geese but geese do not fly one behind the other they in v formation and honk. These objects moved faster then birds flying made no noise were lined up one behind the other in a perfect straight line. I do live in the area of Beale Air Force Base but these objects made no noise moved faster then birds but not as fast as a jet and made no noise

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.
