As reported

Unknown over Olala, WA

A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.

The report, as filed

He spotted them quickly and agreed that they were not moving. We watched them for around 20 minutes more and he agreed they looked metallic because of the sunlight reflecting. The object on the left was brighter. I don’t know of any commercial craft that fly that high; or, at least, when I have seen aircraft at an extreme altitude I can identify them. We were unable to identify what they were. After awhile I had to go into the house and was distracted by a phone call. At some point my husband continued with his yard work. When I came back out around 45 minutes later, both objects were gone. I have since gone outside about the same time on sunny days, but have never seen them again. My husband snapped three pictures; at first it looked like nothing was there, but when the pictures are enlarged and you know where to look, you can see them. Of course, they are not as clear and bright as they were to our eyes, but something is definitely there. They are distorted, but look almost squarish. If you would like the pictures I will send them, but I am not sure if they would help. We have a friend who is an amateur astronomer. He did come over and look from the spot where we were standing and also saw the pictures. He doesn’t have a clue. I don’t know have a clue as to research what they might have been. We are certain, however, that they were definitely metallic, and were not moving. phone compass says 149 degrees SE 47 27'16" N, 122 33'1" W

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.
