Unknown over Kelly Crossroads, PA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I am sharing this because of the Covington, PA reported UFO incident dated 10/1/2020. Covington is roughly 2 hours or so North of Kelly Crossroads. I am admittedly and unapologetically a UFO skywatcher, it's not my fault I watch the sky more than the average person who is oblivious to it. I watch the sky a lot but to actually slow stop my vehicle in a 45-50 MPH zone oblivious to traffic is a different story. It was about 7:00 PM, weather was calm and the sky was not particularly clear that night. So as soon as I came into the clearing after the KC intersection, on my right there was what seemed to be some type of larger drone or possibly even a life flight helicopter. It was blinking green and white lights in a similar manner as they do, but I began to raise an eyebrow when I noticed that the lights were not moving like a helicopter or drone should. They remained stationary. Like it was just hovering directly over these people's houses, we're talking maybe 7! 5-100 ft tops. When stopped my vehicle, I did notice that there was someone else standing beside their vehicle there who was watching the same thing above their house as I was... so this was where my reasoning stemmed when I didn't report it before reading the Covington individual's account. I brushed it off because I'd figured it was just something logical since someone else was seeing it too and if it was important I would hear about it since it's a small town. However, as I drove further and further toward Kuhns sawmill I could still see the thing in my rear view every so often because it would do a weird "strobing" thing you'd expect from a strobe light. Extremely bright and white in color. I was about 2 or 3 miles away by the last time I could see it and its brightness hadn't changed in intensity from when I was right next to it- so to speak. What they seen up in Covington is pretty much what I seen in a rural area roughly two hours south from their location.! So I had to at least report it because even if it can be expl! ained, t hen these people are owed an explanation for why someone is basically invading their homes

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.
