Sphere over tyrone, PA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I was outside trying to locate and view the green comet, but I couldn't find it. The moon had a beautiful halo, and although I know they aren't super rare, I took 3 pictures with my Samsung galaxy z flip3 (doesn't have a very good camera, but it was cold, so I took 3 photos and went inside.) I took 3 pictures from 2229pm-2230pm and went inside. When I got into bed, I pulled the pictures up and noticed a blue spherical object in all 3 pictures. It is in the lower part of the image below the moon, but traveling west to east. I got dressed and ran back outside with a good camera, (this was probably 5 mins later) but it was nowhere in sight. I thought it was a satellite, however I have asked several friends and people online what they think, and they say that it is too low to be a satellite. Now with the chinese balloon thing, I thought I should share. If you have any thoughts about what it is, please let me know! I would live to know what I caught a photo of! There was no noise, no movement noted by me just with the naked eye, all I saw was what is in the photos. Lens Flare

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.
