Triangle over Newport, NC
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I was outside last night at 21:30 and was trying to get a photo of some drones. I saw that one looked weird and had lights diagonally. It had 3 lights, almost diagonally. But both end lights were to the side a little. That's when I noticed it kinda looked like a triangular shaped object. Now I don't know if it is a drone or a ufo.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #170365). Witness text is preserved verbatim, including its spelling; nothing is edited beyond formatting.
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.

I saw what I thought was the star very close to the moon, but then it accelerating at a great speed and then vanished.

* The noise heard in the video is an ac unit. I'm standing directly in front of it. I was trying to get a video of some drones when a bright star caught my eye. Already having my camera on trying to take a video of drones, I immediately moved my phone towards the strange star so I could get a better look at it. When I zoomed in with my camera I saw what looked like a star, but too bright to be a star. And the object was moving, or "dancing" I guess. So I started recording, switching between the 4 different camera angle sensors, trying to get the best view throughout the video. So it's going to look like I'm zooming in and out, but in reality I'm just switching between the different camera sensors trying to get the best angle/view.
