The report, as filed
I seen about 75 lights appear in the sky heading in an East direction over about a 25 minute time span. Groups of 7 at a time. The appeared at a certain spot in the sky and kept coming out of it. I was able to view 1 cigar shaped craft with 2 lights on it. Several stopped in the sky and began moving again. Very scary. I thought we were being attacked.

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.

We were hauling a load of heating oil, eastbound from Stanley, on RT 2, when my partner called my attention to an unusual object on the north side of the highway. The object resembled a dark colored flat iron, approximately 75’ wide, and close to 100’ long. From top to bottom, I’d say it was 30', and it appeared to be sitting on hundreds of points, or legs, which kept it between 15’ and 20’ off the ground. Weather at the time, about 12:04 PM, was 19 degrees Fahrenheit, wind blowing from the north at 16 mph, gusting 23 mph, and the skies were overcast. I radioed the police department, back in Stanley, back at City Hall, and let them know what we had seen. They said that another caller had notified them about the object, and that a deputy was in route to the location.
