Light over Pomona, CA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
At 5:30 a.m. my fiance and I were woken by our son crying. After consouling him and getting him back to sleep we stepped outside for a cigarette. Looking to the night sky we proceeded to see 20-30 bluish white lights evenly spaced above the cloud cover traveling at an extremely high rate of speed Southwest to Northeast. I am relatively familiar with normal earthly aircraft abilities observed from the ground due to our current residence being under a flight path. These objects exhibited no common aircraft traits I am aware of , the lights, spacing, spacing, formation,flight path, speed. The closest aerial object I could relate them to would be a satellite although they were far brighter and moving at an inconcevable high rate of speed.

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.

Lights appearing seperate one after the other in a line out of nowhere in sky moving northeast as other lights that were not moving off on either side of the line of the other lights began moving and had a different color to them orange not bright white or bluish like others. They seem to be doing a military like staggered and protect formation. There were two that laid behind for a while as if to cover where the “caravan” had come from for about 5 more minutes. They moved in the sky effortlessly changing directions which is impossibly for a drone or plane. And I can say I see at this distance ... well they were moving really fast. Faster than any plane or rocket anything on this earth. My partner and I were astonished and tried to get video but my phone was a fail. I’m certain now that we are not alone. And I can’t find anybody who saw the same as we did. It wasn’t space x it wasn’t satellites it was not from here unless there’s a cover up from the public.

To this day I still can’t explain it and I don’t really like talking about it. Another thing is it was very hot that summer week we had the AC going on all day it was hot at night at 2 AM.

I was sitting at a park near Pomona California at approximately 8:35pm with a friend and my dog watching a music video on my phone, when my friend frantically kept telling me to look at this object flying to the west of us. He asked me if it was a drone. When I did look I saw a circular object with multiple red, blue and green flashing lights moving NW just above the flight path of jets taking off from Ontario Airport in the San Bernardino County. I told my friend it can’t be a drone because it’s too close to the airport and that’s when the object stopped and went back heading SE for about 5 seconds, and then started making very tight circles at a fast rate of speed. As the object was doing these maneuvers in the sky there were jets taking off from the Ontario airport and knowing that when the jets do take off they hold at 5,000 ft until cleared to make their turn away from the airport. This object was above the jets at about an altitude of 15,000 ft. There is also a flightpath going west to LAX and those jets fly at 30,000 ft. These jets were definitely very high above this object. The object continued moving NW to East and South in tight maneuvers including going up and down about 5,000ft. Judging by the flashing lights of the object compared to the jets that were taking off and other jets that were very high up the object had flashing lights that did not resemble the lights on the jets plus the lights were very bright. We watched this object for about a good 5 minutes, until it started going SW at a very steep angle up, and it was out of sight in about 6 seconds.

At 7:46pm, I looked up east of the sky looking towards the neighboring city of Montclair or looking over the Inland Empire. I saw a bright light sphere object. It was between yellow and orange in color. Still focus on the object it started ascending very slowly. Then it started shrinking, in what look like if it was in steps or in stages of large to small perfect spheres. While it was shrink at the same time it look like it was losing some of its yellow orange glow, and would looked like a silver or grey color. Then after staring at it for about 15 seconds, it just disappear.

A bright, star like figure moving quickly across the sky. It was moving erratically and very quickly at first, then it slowed down slightly and zigzagged across the sky for the next couple of minutes, until it left our field of vision.
