The report, as filed
I was sitting out side with 5 other people. One person jumps up and screams” is that a UFO” everyone hops up and sees the same thing. The aircraft passed in about 10 seconds. A military jet was chasing after the aircraft. The UFO was 10x bigger than the military craft. about a minute later two military choppers were going full speed over the house. About another minute passes and there’s another chopper. Everyone saw the same thing. We all saw a figure 8 glowing green speeding past us.

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.

Spotted around 8:35 pm by my friend when moving the car into the driveway of the house. After approximately two to three minutes, all lights on the craft dimmed in sync and were no longer visible. No clouds in the sky. He called me to come outside to see what he saw. I came out and saw the craft. I went back inside the house to get a camera and when returning to the driveway, the craft was no longer visible. My friend is a huge UFO skeptic and saw the same thing and swears by it as well.

We spoke via telephone with the witness, and she seemed to us to be quite serious and sober-minded. We suspect she is a very capable witness. PD
