The report, as filed
I was standing on my porch Friday September 9th 2022 facing west in Coeur d'Alene Idaho. there is usually a star or I'm assuming it is a planet that is stationary but slowly moving north west. I saw above it what looked to be a star that was going on and off like a slow flashing light. I start recording and then it starts flashing red and green. I thought at first it was a star because it was not moving it was hovering. I start making a tick tock and all of a sudden it got super super bright turned off and got super bright again and then jetted to the north and back a little bit. I started screaming for my boyfriend who wouldn't come and by that time I was super scared and my footage wasn't great but could see some of it. My camera cut off. After it cut off I seen it go back over go up and then in the sky I would assume it was going west but it looked like it was going down and I couldn't see it because the trees was in the way after that. I know what I saw is not normal it wasn't a plane whatever I saw was something out of this world it is on my tick tock if you need proof.

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.
