Light over Lyndora, PA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
It was a steady stream of “stars” moving at an even pace in a line SW to SE, evenly spaced with an occasional one closer together. I saw dozens and dozens of the objects through this time. I witnessed it for over 5 minutes and saw it end, but of course don’t know when it started. At the end of the stream what appeared to be an airplane was in the location of the end of the stream. It had blinking lights, and at first I thought it was moving erratically, but seemed to end up moving steadily across the sky. During this time I also noticed 2 falling stars, though the first things I noticed when first going outside were at least 2 “stars” moving across the sky (one N to S, the other more E to W) before I noticed the stream. I tried to video the event on my phone, and have 2 mins of vid, but you really can’t see anything because of the apparent low quality of the video feature of my old IPhone, at least when it’s dark outside.

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.
