Light over Idaho City, ID
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
We were camping in Idaho City (we being 4 friends), over at Grimes Creek campgrounds, the opposite direction from our local Airforce base away from light polution. We saw 2 lights traveling at the same speed with a bit of distance between each other and noticed another one breach the atmosphere and fall into the same pace, distance and speed. We proceeded to watch it happen 5 more times, all of the lights traveled at the same speed and distance from each other in a straight line not straying from their path, until branching off and dispersing into different locations. Once they were there they started moving and dissapeared from site.

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.
