Other over Tetonia, ID
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
My mom and I had just arrived to my home in Tetonia after I got off an evening shift at work. We were bringing in groceries from the car and when I walked out on the porch and saw a line of lights coming from west to east. I asked my mom if she saw them and she said “YES!!” We both watched in awe for 3-5 minutes as the lights went across the whole sky. A couple hundred lights slowly moved from the horizon to horizon. Some lights shot off from the line as well. The starlink came up in the conversation afterward because that seemed to be the only explanation. Then we saw a starlink in the opposite side of the sky! It was very short and small compared to what we saw earlier. We have gone round and round about this for over a year and we are now deciding to report it. We saw a starlink tonight!! It was not what we saw before. Not at all.

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.
