The report, as filed
My name is ((male's name deleted)) and I have been seeing these crafts every other day for a long time. I've been really hesitant to say anything but I'm being followed. I know for a fact that as far as help can't anyone really help . They move to fast, and apparently have been around for some time.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #172794). Witness text is preserved verbatim, including its spelling; nothing is edited beyond formatting.
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.

While looking at the stars in the direction to the west. I noticed an object to small to be an aircraft without running lights. I pointed to the object and my girlfriend and we watched it move across the sky. It then stopped immediately and went in the opposite direction, stopped again and went back to the original direction. At that moment another object appeared from the same location as the original and it began what looked like a chase with the first object. Then another appeared following the first two, then another. They all moved from West to North/West. We scanned the sky’s with our eyes to find them but they moved out of sight. Every few minutes we would find another really faint light moving across the sky at incredible speed for how far away it appeared to be. I would say they were all out of the outer atmosphere. We stayed out on the roof for another 20 minutes only to see one at least ever few minutes. Most moving in different directions. Eventu! ally we went inside , not because of the lack of sightings but because of the length of the sighting. The best part is that we have one very clearly breaking the laws of physics all on camera.

My adult son and I were looking for satellites in the sky from our backyard when all of a sudden we see a triangular shaped object (one light at the front and two in the back in each corner with black mass in between the lights) flying extremely fast across the sky. He pointed it out and I immediately saw it and we watched it until it was no longer visible. It was flying northwest then disappeared into the night sky.

It was night. Object started as a bright white light behind light cloud coverage. Soon it became more clear as an object that seemed to be entering the atmosphere/ falling. The object seemed to be burning white asvit fell and had two long tails on either side at an angle making a triangular shape. The object fell for several minutes and disapeared at distant hills/houses. We were on the freeway (I wasn't the driver) and I was using my phone so the video didn't catch as much as the naked eye did.

I was driving back home from work. I was at a red light, when suddenly, I look over the horizon, I saw an oval metallic shape UFO floating/steady over some power lines near some train rail track and overlooking the chevron refinery. When I realized what I was looking at, I decided to turn around to recorded on my phone but it was too late, it was gone/disappear. But I can assure you it wasn't a drone, it didn't have any fan looking propeller or power source. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Came out on my front porch after waking up. Noticed what I thought was a plane in the distance, looked like it had red lights on its under side but then when I looked again it just stopped. It got brighter, almost like it "pulsed" but then it dimmed down again. I woke my husband up, he couldn't figure it out either. It's been sitting in the same spot for almost an hour over Albany. It's far too bright, and low, to be a star.
