Light over Chocowinity, NC
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Me and my mother were pulling into the driveway when we saw a big bright light over Whichard’s Beach which is across the bay. We watched it as it zigzagged and became smaller. It was, as I can only describe as teleporting randomly across the sky. It had no pattern and it’s light was blinking, also with no pattern. Later we were still mesmerized by it’s oddness and it split into two. One of the two went to the right and as soon as it stopped moving away the left light as fast as I have ever seen something move, it shot towards the other light and recombined. It had two lights, one of them was red and it ended up turning white and the other light was always white. It had no patterns whatsoever so I cannot explain it. It was floating so high and with no pattern so there was no possibility it was a drone. It ended up fading away shortly after it recombined. Weirdly enough it wouldn’t show up on my phone camera even though it definitely should’ve.

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.
