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.

Kapolei, HI

This light has only been visible within the last week or so. I drive 30 miles from home to work at 4:30 am until 5:15am. The unidentified object just stays in one position. No blinking lights like an aircraft, just a light.

Kapolei, HI

On Sunday August 31st, at approximately 3:20 AM, I was driving home with my friend from a night out. We had just passed Waikele, when we saw a large green light drop from the middle of the sky. It happened really fast. It dropped and sort of disappeared real quick and then a second or so later, it dropped again a little lower from where it had just disappeared and then it kind of got bright and disappeared real quick again. I don't even know how it disappeared because it literally happened so fast. I've seen shooting stars, comets, and meteors before, but nothing like this. It really have me chills. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD
