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.

I was talking about UFOS and their existence stepped outside to take my dog I suddenly felt weird so I looked up quickly. Within seconds a bright light that was stationary suddenly dropped rapidly in elevation towards me and just as quickly shot off into space. The whole incident was not even 5 seconds. The light was very similar to a star. Impossible movements that no humans are capable of. I was talking about them beforehand which I thought was very odd. It was a light. It didn't have lights on it. It was too fast to capture I'm lucky I saw it. No sounds. No trail .

I went outside of my job and sat on the stairs of 509 south 9th street and looked towards the left and the abandoned school.. Some distance above it was a rather large bright white light that was pulsating its brightness, after about a minute of hovering and strobing brightness it seemed to get so bright it almost looked like it split into 2. If you slow the video down you can see clear space between 2 different color orbs. The object then start moving in a straight line left. Its color was more of a red oramge now, still pulsing. Not like a plane flashing its lights, not a helicoper(because our hospital has a helipad and helicopter) and its movement an and height in sky didn't look like a drone, or anything I've ever seen(and I observe the night sky every chamce I get, im learning the cosmos). It moved in a straight line until disappearing from my view. The weirdest part is that when I'd zoom in to get a better pic on video, it was as f it disapeared, like it didn’t want to be seen. I took still shots of it in slowmo and no clear shape other than an s rotated sideways was shown

We were grilling food in the backyard at approximately 6:15PM when we noticed a string of lights moving across the sky. It was silent but stayed in the same form of a line. After a minute it disappeared completely!! [NUFORC annotation: Starlink - Certain]

A group of people were watching an RC car when me and 1 other person witnessed a hovering white oval. It did not leave a trail and when it went behind a tree it disappeared. Nobody but myself and another seen it.
