The report, as filed
I was in my vehicle driving to get gas. In front of me out of nowhere was this strange circle or ball or disk formation and was like i cant explain it. It came in front of me so fast , long enough for me to watch it because id never seen anything like it before. It moving very fast but not in a straight line. It hovered to its direction then it poofed gone like it exploded cause it disappeared but with like a black hole . But it was so fast. I do not know how far from me is not explainable.

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.
