The report, as filed
On January 23rd 2023 at 10:45pm I went outside on my deck to get some fresh air staring up at the sky I noticed what appeared to be a satellite I watched it for at least one minute going west and then all of a sudden it made a u-turn going the opposite direction going east I watched it for at least another minute in that direction before I couldn't see it anymore it seemed like it was a lot higher than a normal satellite to me and dimmer not as bright.

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.

First witness spotted three black disks, then they ran and called second witness. When they arrived the second witness spotted a single black disk spinning/revolving as it darted in and out of dark clouds, camouflaging with the sky. Second witness filmed, and quality is not the best but snippets of UAP can be seen in bottom right corner of video, 0:16-0:18 seconds in, next to a small break in the clouds. This sighting spanned about 5 minutes before the UAP quickly went behind clouds for final time. The sky then darkened into nightfall not long after.

When I wake early this morning, I saw a brilliant light in my room window, I think was storm but when I am going to the kitchen I saw a big white light in a cloud that come and go and move too. Could you please, explain what is this? Thanks. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD
