Changing over Tallahassee, FL
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
On 12/28/2020 at 2:45 pm, it was a bright and sunny day with no clouds in the sky. I was walking outside in my neighborhood that has a lot of pine trees, and when I came to an incline with a clearing of trees that exposed the sky, I looked up and noticed 3 distinct bright white round objects arranged in a straight line moving west. As I continued walking, I noticed that the 3 objects began to move around each other as you would move shells in a shell game. They slowed down, almost stopping, then formed a perfect triangle. This is when I tried to take a video, which I got for a second or so until a tree branch obscured my view. As I moved to an opening to keep watching, the 3 triangular objects merged into 1 oblong object that was now moving in the opposite direction (east). The object kept moving eastward as one oblong object. There was a passenger airplane in the vicinity, that was distinctly and obviously an airplane, unlike these 3 objects that moved, sl! owed, changed shape and direction. I watched the object(s) for about 5 minutes, then kept walking, while they were still present.

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.

I arrived at work and I parked my car in front of the building. The sky was clear without clouds. As I was walking, I looked into the sky I saw something that was flashing lights or reflecting light from the sunrise. I noticed that the object was bouncing and changing directions very fast so I took few pics before the object disappeared.

I was walking out to my truck after dark around 8:30 pm to leave after having dinner with my aunt and uncle. I stopped and looked up to the sky for some reason when I unlocked my vehicle door. I saw what I believed to be a satellite moving slowly across the sky. It was simply just a dot of light far away. Then the object moved quickly downward and I knew it wasn’t a satellite. I gazed in awe as another bright light quickly moved towards it. They were moving very unnaturally. I stared for about one minute before the tree line obstructed my view.

Craft was moving across sky. A picture of this was taken on a game camera. One frame it was there the next frame the craft was gone. The trail camera was attached to a tree in the woods I hunt in. The craft was a bright white. There were multiple lights shining out out of.the craft. This information I have on a SD card.

In Tallahassee, Florida downtown office building. Looking from my north facing office window at twilight, saw two pulsing lights at a distance too far apart to be a single aircraft. Just above the western horizon, one behind the other. They were each marked by single pulses of white, star like light, apparent magnitude 3.0, the trailing one pulsing about 3/10ths second after the lead one, traveling along the same northeast to southwest path. Each light pulsed at a rate approximately once per second. Called my colleague into my office, and she observed the same lights, verified that they were too far apart to belong to a single aircraft, and appeared as flickering stars in motion along a flight path rather than aircraft. Neither of the lights had any color, and the second, trailing light, always pulsed immediately after the lead light.
