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.

Over our lake the first craft was a sphere that was slowly moving up and down changing light patterns. The second craft at first appeared to be an airplane in the distance but did not move, instead, the lights seemed to change with the original craft, as if communicating somehow. We saw the same 2 crafts over 2 hours later from a second location about a mile away

Another then appeared on the horizon, identical to the first. Soon after followed a triangle of three lights. Finally another single. All were below the clouds, @ perhaps 10,000 - 15,000 ft. They traveled in the same direction, stayed on the same course, did not lose altitude. Eventually they appeared to dim and almost burn out. But stayed on course. The entire "event" took more than five minutes but less than ten. It is a cold, dark night, approximately 8:30 pm EST. I'm not sure of direction, but I believe they were moving south to north. As the last object was disappearing, an actual aircraft flew overhead- easily identifiable by the "normal lights" and sound. It did not appear to be chasing the objects, but it did reinforce how foreign the previous objects in the sky seemed. I took a few pictures with my I-phone. They of course didn't capture what we saw very clearly, but they are all I have to share.

It looked like a plane but it change it shape and lts color became pitch black but the lights were still there when it came out of the woods it was big still changing shape, then it went up the road it did a zigzag and it took off fast.there were to white lights behind it which follow it. No sounds were heard. Note, when I try to walk my dog about an hour before this happen, she did not move at all. She was looking at that part of the woods. So I went back inside with her.
