Triangle over easley, SC
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I have never made one of these reports and I am reluctant to make this one. I am prior USAF SSGT, Retire after 23 years of government service. What I seen last night was not an Air Craft. I was out to take a picture of the super moon on the 26 April. In the sky between to trees just above the lake I saw to bright white lights at the tail section. I could make out a dark triangular shape it was just hovering. The moons light was reflecting off the object. I could not believe what I was looking at, I just froze! My mind could not wrap around what I was looking at. I just stood there looking at this thing. I then realized I had my camera and before I could take a picture the object shot straight up to the north and was gone in less then a second.

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.
