As reported

Light over Chelan, WA

A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.

The report, as filed

I was viewing the night sky directly overhead using a pair of 7X35 standard binoculars. Within a few seconds of putting my eyes to the lenses I observed a small white dot about the size of the smaller stars that seemed to be traveling at a very high altitude. Much higher than any aircraft. It was moving rapidly from the northeast to directly overhead. My first thought was a satellite. My second thought said it was traveling much too fast and deliberate to be a satellite. As I continued to follow it, suddenly a second small white dot appeared, in my binoculars field of view, coming from the exact opposite horizon, the southwest, and was traveling at what appeared to be the exact same rate of speed as the other white dot . I then was remarkably able to view both white dots, traveling at the same rate of speed, directly opposing each other and on what appeared to be a collision course. I then had an odd thought that they were aware of each other and weirdly I fe! lt connected. Very strange feeling . They continued along a direct collision course and at the moment they reached each other they very quickly (literally in a moment) looped around each other in extremely close proximity as if they were playing and then each white dot preceded back in the opposite direction that it came from. I was able to watch both and as one disappeared from my binoculars field of view I continued to follow and watch the original one as far as I could until it disappeared over the Northeast horizon. This entire viewing only lasted between 30 and 45 seconds. Amazing to me is out of all the stars present in this clear night sky during this event, these two small specs appeared crystal clear to me and as though they were communicating to me.

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.
