Circle over Southhampton, NY
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
On September 5th, 9:54 p.m., in Southhampton New York, near Shinnecock Bay, seven of us spotted two unidentified flying objects, one shortly after the other, each a perfect circle, one orange the other white flying south to north. They did not make any sound and only emitted light in the shape of the saucer, namely a circle. They flew separately, the white one before the orange one. The white one appeared further away or smaller than the orange one. They were within our line of site for less than a minute and moved at a steady pace. We’re writing this report in part because of the excellent documentary The Phenomenon, which suggests that aliens have had and might continue to have power over major nuclear power sites.

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.
