The report, as filed
Earlier this month, I took a trip to Arizona for an artist retreat and on the evening of May 11th, at 8:59PM, I was walking my puppies back from the dog park, with my mother, and we noted the incredibly strange clouds and how they were moving. They looked like fingers crossing the entire night sky, or like dividing cells, and because the sky, there, is massive, it was quite a sight to behold. The clouds that were closest to us were showing us images. The first was a sonogram image of a baby my Mom had lost many years ago, and then it morphed into the typical Grey alien face with big black eyes. And instead of simply gliding over us, they were actually coming towards us. That's what my mother intended to capture in camera. So she took out her brand new smart phone and began snapping photos, straight up into the night sky above us. The only things we saw were the supremely strange clouds, the moon, and a few stars. She took six pictures over the course of 29 seconds, then we walked back home, falling asleep immediately. It wasn't until the next morning until we realized what, exactly, we had caught on film. The pictures show a craft, with many colors, in the clouds. This thing was not visible to our naked eyes at all. It seems as if it were tumbling through dimensions or moving fast because its orientation changes between pics. Pay close attention to the photo with the clouds and craft poking out in the upper right. First of all, notice how the round shape of the craft is present in the clouds themselves. We think that perhaps the clouds weren't clouds at all, but holograms of some kind. Now, if you zoom in on the craft itself, first, check out the yellow port hole windows near the top. They actually reflect off of the metallic hull underneath, the illuminated ridgeline. Beneath that, you've got the purple/bluish layer. There are what look like pipes running the entire length. Under that, you've got a row of blue lights that also reflect onto the hull underneath. And beneath that, there is the bottom of the craft, presented in exquisite detail. There is a clear 90 degree edge from the row of oval vent-looking holes to the braided structure underneath. The clouds, we estimate, were only about 200 feet above us, so this craft was close. It was massive. We would love to have these photos analyzed by professionals. We already submitted everything to MUFON and received a call back for interview. They are compiling the report now. These images are completely legitimate. I should also add that we are a family with many strange experiences. I, for example, have seen about a dozen good UFOs in my life, just never caught them on film. Thank you for taking the time to look at these extraordinary images. Be well

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.
