Light over Woodbury, MN
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Wife and I were driving down 94 westbound towards Minneapolis and saw 2 lights (southwest) in the sky that looked similar to a tower of some sort. As we kept driving down the freeway, the lights were slowly moving until they were vertically aligned. Then the lights were out of line again and I started recording in my phone. They were bright yellow ish lights that seemed to be moving in our direction. Eventually a 3rd light popped up but disappeared shortly after and moved faster . The 2 lights remained still until 1 light veered left and disappeared. The last light slowly started moving away and almost “shut off” its bright light and looked like a regular plane blinking and was not bright anymore. My I took a video because I feel like no one ever records these things when they happen. My wife said she saw them flashing maybe with a green tint but I couldn’t tell. I have glasses and corrective vision and she has 20/20 if not better so I believe her.

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.

I was stargazing when I noticed a Orange colored orb moving past a star I was looking at and it kept moving until it disappeared going east

Moving from NW moving SE, a trail of many lights (20+) that were the size of small stars moved one behind the other in a perfectly straight line. Some where closer together than others, but all in a straight line moving the same direction together. It went quickly over our house and was silent the entire time. It moved fast and disappeared into the clouds to the SE. it looked like the lights were all tied together on a string being pulled across the sky. We all saw it and can not explain it. We were just looking at an application on my phone that showed the stars and constellation in real time as they orbit in an augmented reality. When I saw the moving line of lights, I opened the application. The application did not label the moving stars when I pointed my camera at the apparitions. We are a white family in a middle upper class neighborhood. I believe in aliens. The objects left no trail or sound.

I was looking out my window and saw a bright white sphere shaped object traveling somewhat fast enough to catch my attention. I thought it was a plane but in my area, they usually pass by in the opposite direction. I decided it was a bird since it was white but then the altitude did not match. Then the object, stopped mid air. I jumped closer to the window to see if I could get a better look and 3 more objects followed the first one. All had same shape, size and color. They positioned themselves in front of the first, in a straight line, also fixating their position mid air. Following that, the original object in a circular motion, moved in front of them. Then, copying what the first one did, they also, in a circular motion, moved in front of the first object. After this, they continued (all 4 objects) to move in a spiraling motion, like a carousel. Always moving N , and about 50 seconds after all of this happened, they went behind a cloud. I was ready to snap a picture if they emerged from behind the cloud but they never did.

Two Circular objects hovering side by side. Extremely bright white and very large in color and size. Second object appeared to be imploding on itself. No navigational lights, no wings or tail. Objects appeared to be above the intersection of Valley Creek Dr. and Century Ave. Less than 500 ft in altitude and at a 65 degree angle. Amazing!

Just gotten on highway 94, looked to the left, and saw a very low flying small plane (very boxy and flat) which seemed to go in and out of focus almost fuzzy/pixelated, disappeared.

Single, very bright, red light (with red glow) flying at very high velocity and rapidly changing direction before flying out of sight. Approximately 1-2K feet above the ground and made no noise. Both my wife and I saw the object and at first thought it was a helicopter until realizing the speed was impossible and the red light was not like any aircraft we had seen in the area. Our bedroom window faces a path to the airport so we are familiar with the look of typical aircraft.
