Circle over Pollock Pines, CA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Traveling NE in the clear sky like silver round object traveling at a smooth rate oc speed. Seem to know it was getting my attention, because I had this feeling something was watching me from the sky, nkt on anything or alcohol and two others confirmed seeing an object. Then it held its position in the sky, about a pin dot but still silver in color and now strobing in a way, maybe reflection from sun. It traveled in a clockwise movement, when I went to get my binoculars to get a better view it was no longer in my view. It shook me to my core and I watch satellites and space station fly by every day, this was not that. Maybe a drone but how far it went to the sky and the distance just seems unimaginable.

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.
