Sphere over Rock Round, CA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
We were visiting Texas for a soccer tournament and decided to go to Denny’s because it was across the street from our hotel. I thought that the ice dripping from the Denny’s sign was super cool so I decided to take a picture. When I reviewed the picture back at the hotel, I had seen that there was and unidentifiable object above the sign in the sky. When I zoomed in to look at it, it looked like there was some sort of energy buzzing around the object that caused the planes/fields of the picture to become slightly distorted and pixelated. The shape of the object was a half sphere (the top round and the bottom flat). It looked like it was flying forward, causing the object to lean forward which just doesn’t make technical sense to the technology provided today. It also doesn’t make any sense according to physics because of gravity affecting how the object flys (hence there are no wings on the object). I showed the picture to the people I was with and we all agreed on it being and unidentifiable object flying in the sky.

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.
