Cone over Indianapolis, IN

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

The report, as filed

Was out for a walk after a long day. Started hearing an extremely high pitched and continuous sound. Thought it might be from my migraine, but it wouldn't go away, and seemed like it was coming from above/behind me. I finally turned around after 4/5 minutes and saw a silver spacecraft, big enough to recognise as a spaceship of some sort, but still far away. It had this strange silvery haze around it as well, that was almost beautiful. I was frozen there for a few minutes, and unfortunately didn't think to get video evidence. I was still confused and kind of scared, so decided to just go home and get some sleep. Sorry if it seems like a stupid thing to do, but I was very tired and wasn't 100% that I was seeing what I thought I was. (Though now I am sure of what I saw.) About to turn in early for the night, but wanted to get this off my chest first. Thank you for listening. If I see the spacecraft again, I will submit another report.

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.

On Sunday November 5th of 2023 at 2:45pm at 86th and Zionsville Rd in Indianapolis, I was looking up into the sky when I observed a circular whirlwind and about 40 or more unidentified chevron winged aircraft in the sky. The aircraft was very high up and was visible for about 5 minutes. I only caught 52 seconds of it in video and I took 1 snapshot picture. Most of the aircraft had disappeared or fallen out of my view by the time I made the video and took a photo.

The black orbs would space out and then come back together. While flying through the sky. I have never seen anything like this in my life!

I was looking at the sky and asked my roommate to come look at the bright light in the sky above my neighbors house. At first I thought it was a drone but it was too big. The moon was south of this, the object was east. I took a picture but it was moving, so we took 2 videos of it. It almost danced in the sky. I held my phone still and the object appeared to come closer and had a swirl shape and it would drop out of the camera and then come right back up. It was bright white and had a yellowish bottom edge. We watched this for approximately 15 minutes until it disappeared. We went to bed and I had forgotten about it until later that afternoon.
