Oval over East Hartford, CT
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
At approximately 10:30pm on 7/14 i noticed 4 oval shaped lights hovering about 150ft above the park at the end of my street. They were extremely bright. A bright light came out of the bottom of one of the oval shaped craft. I walked down to the end of the road to see what they were. and before I reached the end all 4 flashed and disappeared with out making a sounds or leaving a light trail. I did notice while they were hovering one seemed to be going up and down and left and right unlike a plane or helicopter would be able to.

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 was driving west toward Hartford on Route 2-West. I saw a bluish/green fireball with yellowish flames/tail flying east to west at what seemed to be warp speed. It was flying horizontally, not like it was dropping out of the sky. As I was watching it, it simply vanished, near the CT river.

Saw a very bright light in the sky which then faded and revealed the shape of the craft. It looked similar to a helicopter and was extremely low, but it definitely was not a helicopter and didn’t have propellers. It seemed like it noticed us watching it and after being slow, it went away very fast at least a few miles away. Rolled down the car windows and it made a faint humming sound.

Object was seen on Main Street in East Hartford, CT, above the city lights, large starlike bright light only shining in sky changed as it moved closer to large triangular lit aircraft with red and white lights at all 3 points, two bright white lights pointing forward on underside, when directly overhead the bottom appeared grid-like, slight humming sound, slow moving. I followed a distance from a distance. Noticed other red and white blinking aircraft at approximately same height but more distant. Continued to see one or more vehicles at a distance for about half an hour.
