On 08/02/2020 approximately 2100 hours, I was star gazing and seen and heard an airplane traveling West to East with typical flashing lights. I had a pair of binoculars and could easily see the plane. Shortly after seeing this plane a circle object with a row of lights traveling Northwest to Southeast. When looking through binocular it appeared as a circle with a cone light tail the front lights number four and were square and extremely bright. there was no noise or exhaust and it traveled across the sky in less then 2 minutes.

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.
