The report, as filed

On Saturday, October 17th, in Lithonia, Georgia, while driving on the I20 west, a silver object flashed in the sky, disappeared, and flashed again. This can be seen in the video in upper right of the sky. I noticed the object while driving and went home and checked my dash cam. The time and date is off on my dash cam but this was around 3:45pm.

Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #160081). Witness text is preserved verbatim, including its spelling; nothing is edited beyond formatting.

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.

Lithonia, GA

In the early mornings or late in evenings there is a star shape object seems to be much higher than most of the commercial planes in sky, and it moves at different speeds and sometimes disappears as it speed up. I don’t think it’s a jet or plane because it will appear as a star then slowly take off or change direction! I see this almost every other day or night now for weeks [NUFORC annotation: Satellite - Possible]
