Sphere over Winnetoon, NE
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I stepped outside around 6:00 a.m. this morning to take a quick glance at the sky as I'm an amateur astronomer. I noticed what appeared to be a satellite but was moving from Southwest to Northeast. To my surprise there was another similar object following directly behind the first in exactly the same direction. When I looked down towards the Southwest several more objects were present spaced exactly the same distance apart and all heading in the same SW to NE direction. Initially I thought these were maybe military craft but there was no sound whatsoever and they appeared to be much higher in the sky similar to satellites. I'm not certain how many objects in total there were prior to my observation. I counted 8 while I was watching.

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.
