Light over Georgetown, TX
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I get to work early every morning and always take time to stargaze using an astronomy app. Over the last week and a half I've seen three different anomalous lights on three separate occasions. This was the third. It was a bright light, slightly larger and brighter than Mars that appeared to be high in the atmosphere. It entered my vision from the south and was heading northwest by my best guess. The light was a white/yellow steady glow that didn't blink or flicker. It flew in a straight trajectory faster than anything I've ever seen. It had a slight red tail. It looked like a shooting star but it was moving perfectly straight and it never faded or burned out it just flew out of view. I had an immediate instinctual reaction. I knew, I felt it's weirdness. I've seen this same light acting weird three times in the last week. I'll report the other two with descriptions as well

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.

This was my second sighting of the same starlike light that moves like it shouldn't. This time it just sort of ambled across the sky. It was the least weird, I guess, of the three sightings. It did allow me the chance to film it. The first time, I just wasn't thinking, and the third time it moved so fast I couldn't have filmed it if I wanted to. It's not the mother ship from Independence Day, but I wonder what the numbers would look like if more people payed attention and more of these soft, or subtle sightings were reported.

Early morning at work I always stargaze using an astronomy app. This morning I was holding my phone up to the sky looking at the app which provides like a star map and there was this bright light and I was literally thinking to myself why isn't this bright star on the star map on this app. Then an airplane which was I mean I don't really know how to judge height or distance in the air from the ground, so this plane was flying you know I would say mid-level there's an airport near here I mean you could clearly see the the blinking like red lights on the plane. Well as soon as the plane flies by all of a sudden this light moves and starts like following This plane sort of pacing it so it does that for I don't know what might have been 30 seconds to a minute it didn't sort of makes a u-turn loops back around towards where it originated and then what I can only describe as it looked like a reverse falling star. Like the thing shot off like at a 60° angle look like it was headed straight up and as it did it seemed it got smaller as sort of started glowing red and leaving a trail and then vanished. And that was it.

I was enjoying the clear blue sky facing North standing in the shade of my house when I noticed what I first thought was a high flying white bird I had to tilt my head up to maybe 45 degrees to see it better. Within a couple of seconds I realized it wasn’t moving like a bird and was more a white round object moving at a consistent speed pretty fast East to West. At that point I noticed a second object moving with it but not as bright. My speculation is the second object might have been at a higher altitude. The first object if compared to a star at night stood out like Jupiter would. The second object was much more dim. I have the sense that these objects were in earths atmosphere about 10,000 feet moving fast subsonic (I heard no sound). After about five to seven seconds I was no longer able to see them as they traveled West. Thank You

Clouds would eliminate then a extremely bright circular object would appear, when a cloud passed the circular object disappeared,

Hello, I am anonymous bcz I am very terrified. EXTREMELY!!! low flying thing hovered over my house. It made intermittent "pulsating helicopter" metal on metal sound. Never heard this type of sound before. My house vibrated. Too scared to go outside to see it.
