Light over FairPlay, CA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
This evening while leaving a friends home with my wife in FairPlay ca I looked into the sky and pointed out to my wife and my friend and his girlfriend a line of small lights that were what I would assume to be outside of the atmosphere because they were so far away. As we looked at these 15+ dots moving through the sky at incredible pace I pulled my phone out to try and record the event. Unfortunately I couldn’t even come close to seeing them on my phone because of how far away the objects were, but I did get a 3 second recording at 5:56 pm. We spotted the objects approximately 1 minute prior to turning my camera on and being on the top of a hill we watched them move in perfect formation south east for about 2-3 minutes. It was not dark enough to see stars in the sky yet but these objects were shining in the light of the full moon. After we no longer saw the lights in the sky we all talked and then said our goodbyes.

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.
