Unknown over Seekonk/Pawtucket Line, RI
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
It was approximately 1:56 AM on Wednesday, January 8, 2020. I was driving west on 152 on the Seekonk/Pawtucket line approaching the Pawtucket Country Club on my righthand side. It had begun to snow, and everything looked dusted with powdered sugar. It was late, so it was quiet, and not a soul was on the road. Driving along, something to the right catches my eye, and I glance over and see two large bright lights (one above the other, not side by side) hoovering about 30-50 feet above the ground on the golf course. The distance between my car and the lights had to be maybe 100-200 feet away, perhaps a little more. I do not recall it being foggy or misty out, but the area surrounding the lights looked like a thick patch of fog with two large, bright, and circular lights cutting through the mist. I begin to pull off to the side of the road so I can process what I am seeing. As I am doing so, whatever this was, must have noticed my car lights, and within seconds! the bright lights began to fade away and then completely disappeared “into thin air.”

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.
