Circle over Lemont, IL
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
There is objects in the sky that at first looked like stars but then when I looked closer it was lights that were blinking . Been watching it for about a week sometimes couldn’t take picture or video because it would be kind of far away but today I did. The objects move sometimes forward sometimes in circular motion and today when I started filming it seems like it started coming down every time I looked at it through the window. At first I taught maybe it’s drawn or something but it seemed weird that the sky is full of them. And when I took a video and photo it looks like it has some kind of aura it changes shapes, kind of hard to describe.

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.
