Formation over Hensley, AR
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I noticed what I thought was a satellite in the sky above my house,my daughter pointed out that there were several others.they were moving from east to west and more kept appearing from the east and traveled west and south west. This went on for about an hour or more.some were in V shaped patterns and some that were in a pattern that resembled kites with a tail. We literally saw hundreds of these lights were in the sky at the same time. Most were white in color but there were maybe 20 that were brighter and appeared to be a little larger with an amber color. I made phone calls to several people in west little Rock and they were visible from there as well.

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.
