The report, as filed
Driving home, my daughter and I witness a very strange form trying to replicate a cloud in an almost triangular shape but with a tail pointing down to earth. The shape changed color for a florescent yellowish green to fluorescent red, then back to yellow. It was stationary and looked like it even had the clouds stopped from moving. the tail grew, and as we reached our destination we got out of the car and watched it change to almost camouflage it's color to look like a cloud only a little darker. the tail began to retract, the form slowly began to dissipate but not like the clouds. the wisps were nothing like the clouds around it. I have video footage of it as it was like nothing I have ever seen before. I did in 2000 ish see another sighting but NOTHING like this.. The colors of what it was stood out like a storm in a clear sky with a few cirrus clouds.

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.

It was a clear dark moonless night with a full complement of stars. We live on an 8-acre rectangular property with an old abandoned house about ¼ of the way up the property, a new house we built about 1/2-way up the property, and another 4 acres of woods at the top of the property, which slopes upward most of the way. I went to check the mail and was walking up the driveway and was in front of the old abandoned house when I realized that something was blocking out the stars above me. It was a rectangular-shaped craft about three times as long as it was wide, and it was just hovering there with what I perceived to be its “nose” pointing due east. There was a red light and a blue light visible on the bottom of the craft; not prominent but large enough to be easily seen. It also had what looked like two “headlights” on the nose of the craft. They reminded me of headlights because they emitted a clear white light such as headlights emit. I recall that I wasn't at all afraid, just intensely curious about what it could be. I was standing directly under it and it seemed immense, yet there was absolutely no sound coming from it. It just hovered there. We have tall fir trees around our property, which the craft was about 50' above, so I guesstimate that it was probably about 300' in the air. I stood there taking in the sight for what seemed like a very long time, but in reality it was probably only about five minutes. Then, suddenly, it started moving slowly eastward and only seconds later it accelerated so fast that there was a “whoosh” and...it was gone. It just disappeared from view. I am a white male who was 75 years old at the time of the sighting. I have a double degree in economics and business management, and worked in management at not-for-profit organizations and the United Way for most of my business career. I officially retired about five years ago, but still help friends and family with accounting and business-related issues. My wife is an OB/GYN Nurse Practitioner who is five years younger than me. She had her own practice for many years and also worked under contract with medical clinics as an Independent Practitioner. We have lived in the Newberg, OR are since 1996 and on this property since 2004.

This particular object started as what I thought to be a star or planet, but it moved laterally and stars don’t do that to my knowledge. I felt it was aware I was observing because I asked it to give me a signal it could see me or knew of my existence. It as if on que, would blink blue and than green and red. Here is the REALLY strange part, this craft had many many little ones that came out and started to float in a synchronized fashion. Like a show. It became difficult to determine that these tiny objects because they were so synchronously in tune that they moved as of a single object, had I not seen them before they took place in formation, I would of thought it was a single massive unit with the lights being windows? This perfect formation and movement leads me to believe that these are not humanoid but possibly AI? These craft moved perfectly with one another after in formations, there are errors, as it is to be human, but this was something to be hold. This fleet moved in formation for about 3 to 4 minutes I would guesstimate before each of these lights went out one by one. That was one of a few of my experiences. This is the second time I’ve seen a triangle craft, the 1 st time was as a security officer in Portland Oregon, it was a million more times more intense as this because I had a couple witnesses see it as well( I believe they called the police and lost their minds, never seen a man fall apart so fast, it was embarrassing Frankly) but this was a low altitude HUGE triangle, larger than a bus, and had three lights at each point and a red light in the center. This thing sped off at a rate that would kill any human, something visiting us that is far beyond our capabilities. Sorry, this is uploaded to be for a single story, but have several. Also have another story with a witness that can collaborate my story, we both witnessesd it at the same time. Completely silent, it was my very first sighting. Flew right over our heads at maybe 120-130feet over our head. Typical description of others I’ve heard. Two bowls stacked and a full metal color. This thing gave you a electrical feeling, like static electricity I guess? I had hair back than and remember feeling it stick to my collar and I remember getting quite the zap after reaching for my car door handle. We got inside and locked the door and promised we would never say anything to anyone, five minutes later we were telling all our friends. I still am in touch with him today. He can verify this information if you need.

My trail camera was set to take pics every 5 mins. My camera caught 3 pictures and it looks like the glowing orb moves maybe a couple feet but stays level and then disappears. I have before photos as well. There’s no light at this time and is on private/remote property.

there was a spherical light emitting a green laser, pointing diagonally towards the surface of the ground. from the lazer were smaller orbs of white light traveling along the green laser towards the ground in tandem. The green "laser" then began to dissappear in quartered segments starting at the ground and ending at the "sphere" the sphere then began ascending and completely disappeared as if it passed through a barrier of some sort. I then glanced at the area through my nvgs to attempt to see of there was anything not visible to the eye alone, and in the background there were several orbs of light that appeared much farther up traveling in a straight diagonal line all appearing to be equally spaced, they also appeared to pass through some sort of "barrier" becoming no longer visible at the exact same spot. Very strange I have never been interested in this type of extraterrestrial stuff or any of the sort, but I have to admit! I have been consumed by curiosity. I've googled everything and have not come across anything similar to what my wife and I witnessed. P.s in the time box I put aprox 2 minutes however we did not see the event begin as it was currently happening in the sky as we walked to the car, on my way to work .

I was watching an Airliner fly over my house when I saw what looked like a satellite in the sky(small dot like a star.) It was moving twice as fast as a satellite and faster than regular aircraft in comparison to the airliner. When the dot came close to the airliner it turned on a spotlight that swept from downward(earth) to towards the airliner, which it radiated in the sparse clouds and turbed off. I watched it pass over the roof and eventually the "Satellite" could no longer be seen. It traveled the same consistant speed across the sky.

Initially saw object with two whitish/blue lights peeking in and out of clouds moving in different directions. Object appeared to be high in atmosphere moving at high speeds and changing direction suddenly. Object then moved slowly westward and flashed 4 times, then 7, then 5, changed direction erratically and quickly, then disappeared behind the chehalem mountains to the north. About two minutes later the object was low to the ground and in front of the mountains about 1 mile away with a deep blue glow. It appeared to move slowly until it disappeared behind the trees. Object appeared to be able to turn its lights on and off at will and change direction, speed, and elevation easily. No audible noise detected.
