Cigar over Abington, PA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Ugh. 500PM. Sitting on Bach deck. Two clouds in the sky. Blue sky. Crystal clear. The one small cloud, NE sky, had what looked like a bright star. As the cloud moved....So did this thing... lol VERY BRIGHT.. Skymaster Binoculars were brought out. So. The object was cigar/cylinder shaped, but it was changing colors. Reflecting off the sun, or lights, I'm not sure, but colors changed, none the less. At one point, it did seem to have a cross appearance, but who knows. My wife observed as well. With both naked eye...and the binoculars.... As the cloud moved west, so did this thing...clouds moved out of site. As did it! Grrrrrrrrr Definitely not a weather balloon or drone. 100 percent positive. Almost as it moved within that cloud on purpose... like a cover....being covert.... Again.... Sky is a blue as the ocean. Literally 1 percent cloud cover... Hate not knowing......

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.

Two orange objects spread apart. They were long and thin shaped orange in color. They stayed in one spot and then tilted sideways as they started to get smaller. They descended extremely slow only a few feet as they were getting smaller and a plane came by the path and passed by and then did a complete circle in the sky and headed toward the objects. They slowly were disappearing getting smaller until they could not be seen. I left and still saw the plane flying over the area.
